Although composites have been used since the first brick was formed, new composites are wonders of materials science. Our state-of-the-art composite testing laboratories are ISO 17025 accredited.
Composite testing is increasingly crucial for aerospace, military, power generation, and transportation applications. By combining desired properties of ceramics, polymers, metals, glass, cellulose, and other materials, advanced composites protect spacecraft from the heat of launch or stop bullets as a layer in lightweight body armor.

Mechanical Testing of Composite Materials
Сòòò½APP’s global network of composite testing laboratories offers an array of mechanical testing services, including compression, shear, tensile, and fatigue.
Non-Destructive Testing (NDT)
Find out about the range of NDT services Сòòò½APP uses to evaluate the properties of a material, parts, products, welds, or systems without materially affecting the integrity of the items being tested.
Thermal Analysis (DSC, TMA, DMA, TGA)
Thermal analysis methods measure mechanical changes under differing temperatures and loads, and can pinpoint when and at what temperature significant thermal events occur.
Carbon Fiber Testing
The use of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymers (CFRP) is growing in many industries. As a result, there is a higher demand for mechanical testing and carbon fiber testing of composite materials.Â
