Your needs: to design high-performance, quality, and safe glass materials or bottles.
Glass is a material with a wide range of applications, which makes it complex to analyze and use for manufacturers and subcontractors in the glass industry. Flat glass, hollow glass, fiberglass, or crystal: studying their characteristics helps companies better control their assembly, durability, and use.
As players in the glass sector, you face many challenges around material quality, product failures, and issues with interactions between the container and its contents.
Checks and chemical analysis before and after commercialization will contribute to the quality of the final product.
Our solutions: verify the compliance of glass or fiberglass, and characterize a failure phenomenon using analysis methods specific to the glass industry.
