Quality

Results you can sign off on

Quality in every step

From taking the sample to signing the report, each step follows a set procedure. Every report states the test method used and compares the result with your specification, so your engineer can check the work.

How we keep results reliable

Recognised methods

Tests are done to recognised South African and international methods (SANS, TMH and ASTM), as required by your project specification.

Calibrated equipment

Presses, balances, sieves, ovens and field gauges are calibrated and checked on a set schedule.

Traceable samples

Every sample is labelled and logged when it arrives, and tracked through preparation, testing and storage.

Checked and signed reports

Results are checked before release and reported against your specification limits, so you can see at a glance what passes.

Impartial and confidential

We report what the material does. Your results are shared only with you and the people you authorise.

Safe on site

Technicians follow site safety requirements, and nuclear gauges are handled by trained staff under radiation safety procedures.
