Our materials testing lab provides the right answers when you need them.

Your needs. Your priorities. Your deadlines. They are what drives everything we do at IMR Test Labs, a state-of-the-art, Nadcap and A2LA accredited material testing lab. Need to have raw materials certified? We do that. Solve your toughest product failure? We root out the cause by identifying defects, processing problems or misuse. Expert testimony? We do that too. Product testing? Reverse engineering? Lab management? Yes, yes and yes. We’re even at the leading edge of many new material analysis technologies and regulatory issues, such as RoHS and CPSIA, to help you maintain a competitive advantage.

Most important, we do all of this accurately, quickly, and exceptionally well. We deliver reports that aren’t reams of data, but the clear, accurate and insightful explanations you need to make the right business decisions.

120 professional engineers, chemists, failure analysts, metallurgists and technicians provide expert material analysis services.

Accredited by both A2LA (American Association for Laboratory Accreditation) and Nadcap, we’re proud to deliver quality testing services that run the gamut of materials analysis from fatigue testing to environmental simulation. The experts on hand at our material testing lab provide understandable, concise answers and solutions to clients in a wide range of industries, including aerospace, automotive, medical and manufacturing.
