Material Properties Testing

You have a future envisioned for your product. You see an outstanding performance—high sales, low returns and happy customers. But before you can consider your product successful, you need to know if it will do what you’re asking it to do. Will it perform as expected? How can you be sure?

Stork Materials Technology experts see your product from a different angle. We see its characteristics—hardness, flexibility, density, flammability, weatherability—as quantities that can be precisely measured. Once we’ve discovered those numbers, we can show you how well it will do its job and for how long; we can assess its future performance against heat, chemicals, moisture, friction, stress.  Most importantly, we can help you make your product live up to your expectations . . . and your vision.

SMT tests almost any material imaginable. Below you’ll find a sampling of the tests we perform on materials such as plastics, rubbers, glass, paints, adhesives, wood products, and insulating materials.
