About Element
Welding is a highly specialized discipline that requires expertise, skill and training. While it’s an integral part of many construction and fabrication processes, weld errors can cause severe damage to materials, resulting in loss of strength and durability, or even structural failures. Expert weld testing helps ensure that your products, and processes, are fit for purpose.
We combine mechanical testing, quality evaluation, process assessments, and safety reviews to ensure that your welds and welding processes are safe, efficient and reliable. Our team includes Certified Welding Inspectors (CWI), Certified Welding Engineers (CWEng), and industry-dedicated technical staff to assist with projects across sectors and applications.
Our Welding Test Methods
We leverage our global platform of labs to help review your current processes, protocols and safety systems to provide feedback what is working better, and how to make improvements for a more efficient and accurate program.
In addition to consulting on procedures and designing test protocols, Element provides both destructive and non-destructive weld testing.
