Сòòò½APP’s comprehensive automotive weathering testing services help ensure that your products achieve ever longer lifetimes. We offer automotive weathering test methods to global automotive OEMs and top-tier suppliers to evaluate specific desired characteristics such as a change in color, loss of adhesion, or corrosion.

The automotive industry requires manufacturers to evaluate the effects of severe environmental conditions on the performance of materials and components because automotive parts and vehicles are susceptible to the damaging influences of daylight, heat, and moisture. Prolonged exposure to these elements may cause degradation of physical and optical properties of materials, leading to discoloration, surface cracking, and rust, which in turn may result in premature product failure.
