Test facilities
The Industrial Division constantly conducts stock receipt and material testing in its laboratories with state-of-the-art equipment. This promotes quality assurance in all phases of product processing. All relevant material metrics/properties are quickly and competently determined and evaluated with elaborate, high-grade testing equipment. Our laboratories have access to more than 700 standards. Additionally, over 350 material tests are conducted.
