Corriosion test with salt fog and corrosive gas

CORRiOSION TEST WITH SALT FOG and CORRiOSIVE GAS

In our fully equipped environmental simulation laboratory, we carry out tests according to international standards and OEM specifications and support you in optimizing your products. Since 1997, we have been supporting our customers in validation of their products, mainly in the automotive, fire detection, industry, railway, IT and shipping sectors. To check the corrosion resistance of your products, we offer you extensive testing possibilities. Our corrosion test chambers are equipped for constant spray tests, cyclic tests as well as tests with dewing and drying.
