Testing of materials and products

Plastic and rubber industry

LOTRIČ Metrology offers you a complete range of testing. A close collaboration with an independent laboratory throughout the entire lifecycle of a certain product will enable you to solve technological problems, complaints, specify longevity or declare conformity with technical specifications.

We offer:

  • optimising processes and reducing costs – up to 90% – with testing from granulate to product;
  • reducing complaints through regular batch control;
  • validation of granulate specifications through input control;
  • guaranteed professional support throughout the entire life cycle of your product;
  • guarantee of credible test results for correct professional and business decisions.

We perform tests according to following standard and numerous other procedures, which are tailored to your requirements.

Expert opinions

We do not doubt the  reliability of their results

We cooperate with LOTRIČ laboratory in the field of testing and analysis of physical properties of samples. They occasionally perform mechanical testing such as tensile strength, microscopic testing of surfaces and breaks as well as environmental testing. Our products are certified by our partners, confirming that they meet standard requirements and are suitable for the market. LOTRIČ metrology group are known for their amazing expertise in issuiing certificates, counselling, and issuing statements while also being very responsive and competitively priced. They ensure accreditation of their services by regular inter-laboratory comparison therefore we do not doubt their results and never feel the need to verify them.

Miha Mežnar, head of laboratory at ITW METALFLEX d. o. o.

Speed and proximity does matter

We cooperate with LOTRIČ Metrology in the area of polymer testing, mostly doing analysis of raw materials. In some cases, the raw materials need to be checked to eliminate other causes in case of problems during production. The inconsistencies found in raw materials can be used as basis for claiming warranty. The proximity of the laboratory and their fast response time help to conduct the analysis in the shortest time possible. Immediately after testing we are informed of the results by electronically signed certificates, sent via e-mail.

Boštjan Šifrar, CEO of Sibo G. d. o. o.

The right information helps you with troubleshooting and upgrading your product

Analysis of fractures and defects in products

Analysis of fractures and defects in the product is an important discipline in the manufacturing industry and is used in the development of new products and in the improvement of existing products. Complex problems on the production line are not easily solved. In such cases, often the companies do not have enough resources, knowledge and analytical methods to ensure a comprehensive approach to the problem. LOTRIČ Metrology laboratories are your partner in problem solving, using chemical and mechanical methods in the field of polymer technology and metallurgical sciences.
