Corrosion and UV testing
Is your company changing products or materials and you want to make sure your product is weatherproof? Are you developing a new surface treatment?
Services for product development and material selection
To support product development, Centria offers accelerated weathering tests in xenon and QUV test chambers. These tests simulate outdoor conditions such as sunlight, rain, dew, and temperature fluctuations. Corrosion resistance is assessed in dedicated salt spray chambers. With this service, we can quickly determine a product’s long-term durability under weather exposure.
