ABOUT
Non metallic materials include a wide range of composites, polymers, elastomers, vinyls, textiles, organic and non-organic compounds. Our engaged experts research, publish and work on the latest materials and techniques, and bring that knowledge to their clients in the form of customized test programs.
Non metallic materials can be evaluated for strength, flexibility, fatigue, and many of the other physical properties that metals are tested to. Understanding the limits of your material is vital in determining its integrity and useful lifespan.
The Element advantage
Our experts can pinpoint characteristics, help you select non metallic materials, test your samples to various industry standards or your own quality system, and work with you to turn the materials into better, stronger products.
