In order to meet these challenges specific to the luxury industry, inspection of the materials used is an essential step. Several factors can affect the life cycle of a luxury product : - Defective raw materials - Non-conforming raw materials - Appearance of defects in the final product - Problems in the suppliers' production process leading to delays in delivery - etc. For assistance with these industrial challenges you are searching for a reliable, independent laboratory with high added technical value. ## Our solution : to offer tailored assistance to luxury industrialists by combining analytics, expertise and counselling on the design of their products FILAB laboratory being specialized in analysis and [material characterization](https://filab.fr/en/our-services/our-analysis-services/laboratory-analysis-composite-material/), has been assisting luxury industrialists in designing and inspecting their products using analytical techniques specific to their needs. Based on experience and its state-of-the-art analytical equipment, FILAB has a wide range of accurate and reliable tools at its disposal to provide the following services : ## ANALYSIS [Chemical analysis](https://filab.fr/en/our-services/our-analysis-services/chemical-analysis-laboratory.md) (raw materials, finished products)) [Packaging analysis](https://filab.fr/en/our-services/our-analysis-services/polymer-materials-analysis-laboratory/laboratory-material-characterization/analysis-of-industrial-packaging-in-a-laboratory/) [Precious metal analysis](https://filab.fr/en/our-services/our-analysis-services/metallurgical-analysis-laboratory/laboratory-analysis-precious-metals.md) [REACH analysis](https://filab.fr/en/our-services/our-analysis-services/laboratory-reach-analysis/reach-analysis-filab-supports-you.md) [Material characterization](https://filab.fr/en/our-services/our-analysis-services/metallurgical-analysis-laboratory/laboratory-analysis-precious-metals.md) : polymers, leather, metals, composite materials, ceramics… [Powder analysis](https://filab.fr/en/our-services/our-analysis-services/laboratory-analysis-powder-characterization.md) [Surface analysis](https://filab.fr/en/our-services/our-analysis-services/laboratory-surface-characterization.md) and coating thickness measurements [Nickel release test](https://filab.fr/en/sectors-of-activity/laboratory-analysis-luxury-goods/filab-studies-nickel-release-in-luxury-goods.md) ##
