Overview

Strength testing is a fundamental materials science test to examine how a material will react under force. It is vital you test your product strength to ensure it withstands the forces it will be subjected to.

Three strength tests will determine the physical performance of your material; tensile testing looks at how much a material can be stretched, impact testing records a materials resistance and flex testing demonstrates how easily your material bends.

There are many more specialist facilities that can test your materials from temperature chambers and vibration plates to wind tunnels, pressure chambers and wave simulators.
