Research and development works are to be completed within a shorter periods of time, thus the products’ cost will be reduced”.   

The accredited science and research laboratory has all necessary equipment. Its employees have developed a number of unique proprietary methods and means to determine chemical and physical properties of  polymer composite materials and to carry our non-destructive testing of products.
