Coating Innovation from Concept to Validation

We tailor our research and testing services to your specific application—starting from the first consultation.

Our process includes:

  • Requirements gathering and feasibility analysis
  • Surface engineering strategy development
  • Coating selection and prototype plating
  • Validation through lab testing and performance simulation

Even if the ideal solution falls outside our existing product line, our team will design or recommend coatings that meet your performance goals—ensuring the right solution, not just an in-network one.

Advanced Testing Capabilities

Our in-house chemical and metallurgical lab is built to deliver fast, reliable data for process development, failure analysis, and material compatibility.

Key lab tools and tests include:

  • Flame Atomic Absorption (AAS) – for elemental analysis
  • Ion Chromatography (IC) – for ion separation and detection
  • Digital Microscopy (up to 5000x) – for in-depth visual inspection
  • Microhardness Testing – to verify surface durability
  • Salt Spray Chambers – for accelerated corrosion testing

In addition to in-house capabilities, Armoloy partners with accredited third-party laboratories when further specialized testing is required. Our collaborative approach ensures that no matter the challenge, clients receive results that are both comprehensive and reliable.

Industries We Support

Our research and development efforts support critical sectors that rely on precision metal coatings for durability, corrosion resistance, and operational excellence.
