Testing Services

Our experts and the equipment used for the standard tests in the testing laboratory are also available for other measurements and studies. This applies in particular to the wider field of solar energy and the thermal, optical and mechanical properties of the building envelope.  We have always been happy to support research and development projects outside of our usual laboratory activities. Examples of this are various tests of devices and systems under extreme environmental conditions, mechanical fatigue tests, accelerated ageing and corrosion, various optical measurements. But there is also much more that we can discuss bilaterally, specifically taylored to the needs of our customers.

Measurements and tests can be carried out in accordance with international standards or to your own specifications. As a testing laboratory, we also have a good national and international network and are happy to establish contacts if we are unable to help with our own resources. If it turns out that there is no established test procedure for a particular issue, we are also happy to develop and establish such procedures with our research team in the framework of a joint project.
