Welcome to the Competence Field “Plastics and Composites”. Here you will find our various and specific competences.

Main activity

The competence area Plastics and Composites is active in research and development as well as in testing services. In addition to pure plastics, the focus is also on reinforced plastics as so-called composites as well as material composites in combination with metal, ceramics or biomaterials.

In the area of services, we offer, among other things, approval and monitoring tests according to national and international standards as well as special tests of

  • piping systems,
  • geomembranes and elastomers
  • composite materials and medical and cosmetic products.

The portfolio of tests includes mechanical, thermal, optical and electrical methods. At the same time, we prepare damage analyses and provide consulting services on topics related to plastics and composites.

In addition to material, semi-finished product and component testing, we are active in the following areas:

  • Development of testing concepts
  • correlations between microstructure/analytics and properties as well as
  • Interfaces and their design.
