Profile: R-TECH Materials specializes in providing material testing services. In every case, the selection, characterization, analysis and development of materials is critical. We have made it our goal, to ensure the reliable and accurate selection, characterization, analysis and development of engineering materials. We receive materials from across the world for testing, consultancy or R&D projects from sectors such as aerospace, automotive, construction, marine, oil and gas and petro-chemical. Our composites laboratories provide facilities for detailing the chemical, thermal and mechanical properties of composite materials, components and products. We can conduct testing to national, ISO and ASTM standards, or to own test specifications. We have been involved in a number of ground breaking R&D activities with a number of different companies. Our loading arrangement is flexible, allowing for testing of both fiber and coupons on the same rig, with a high level of alignment at loads of up to 10kN.
