CHEMICAL LABORATORY TESTING FOR MATERIALS

APM offers a wide range of chemical, physical, mechanical, and microstructural tests and analyses to ensure the quality, safety, and performance of materials in the UAE market. While we finalize the opening of our Dubai branch, we provide access to our cutting-edge facility in Italy, delivering analytical techniques compliant with international UNI, EN, ISO, and ASTM standards, ensuring precision and traceability for every project.

Our services include chemical analysis to determine the composition of metals, alloys, polymers, and coatings, with a specific focus on impurity control and UAE regulatory compliance. We perform mechanical testing — including hardness, tensile, compression, impact, and fatigue testing — providing certified results for industrial quality control. Furthermore, microstructural investigations allow for defect identification and process optimization, while finished product testing ensures the reliability of biomedical devices and industrial components.

By utilizing the advanced technologies in our laboratory — such as FTIR infrared spectroscopy, DSC calorimetry, TGA thermogravimetry, ICP-OES/ICP-MS spectrometry, and SEM-EDS electron microscopy — we guarantee precise and reproducible analysis. These instruments are essential for quality control in the industrial, biomedical, automotive, and electronic sectors for the Dubai and UAE markets.

Choosing APM means relying on an independent partner that performs all tests in-house at our Italian facility, ensuring total process control without subcontracting. We provide certified results in compliance with international ISO and ASTM standards, featuring clear reporting, complete sample traceability, and specialized technical consultancy.

While we finalize the opening of our Dubai office, our technical team in Italy is already fully operational, providing support and expertise to companies operating in the UAE and international markets. Our approach guarantees maximum reliability and safety for every analysis, ensuring that every component or material meets the rigorous technical requirements demanded in the UAE.

FAILURE ANALYSIS -SEM & EDS ANALYSIS

The premier technique for material defect analysis is Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) coupled with Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS). While we finalize the opening of our Dubai branch, we are already providing the UAE industrial sector with access to this advanced technology for high-precision failure analysis and quality control.

By contacting our headquarters, you can coordinate sample shipments and receive expert support for results interpretation, ensuring the reliability of your components within the UAE market.

BIOMEDICAL DEVICES

APM provides comprehensive analytical support for the biomedical sector, including chemical testing, microstructural analysis, mechanical strength testing, and precise determination of gaseous impurities (hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen) in titanium alloys.

As an accredited laboratory for ISO 10993 standards, APM is proud to announce the upcoming opening of its Dubai branch. While we finalize our physical presence in the UAE, we are already supporting medical companies directly from our center of excellence in Italy. To ensure the highest standards of safety and full regulatory compliance, all specialized biomedical tests are conducted at our certified Italian headquarters.

MECHANICAL TESTS

Hardness, tensile, compression, and impact testing, alongside a wide range of material analyses. We ensure precise and reliable results by performing all certified tests at our Italian laboratory in full compliance with international ISO and ASTM standards. Our analytical reports are designed to meet the stringent certification requirements for Dubai and the UAE. To access these services, clients arrange the direct shipment of specimens to our Italian headquarters, where we apply over 25 years of technical expertise.

SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPY

Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) is one of the most advanced techniques for analyzing materials and surfaces at a microscopic level. In view of the upcoming opening of our Dubai branch, we already provide the UAE market with high-resolution SEM analysis to optimize quality control and Research and Development (R&D).

All electron microscopy investigations are conducted at our headquarters in Italy. Clients can communicate directly with our Italian experts and arrange sample shipments to our specialized laboratory. This ensures access to cutting-edge instrumentation and top-tier technical consultancy, guaranteeing certified results and maximum precision for your projects in the Middle East.

RUBBER, PLASTICS, AND FIBERS – Polymer testing

Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), and Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) are essential tools for the quality control of polymers and plastic materials within Dubai’s industrial sector.

METALLOGRAPHY

Metallographic analysis is an essential control for evaluating the internal structure of both ferrous and non-ferrous alloys. This examination is critical within the production cycle for the infrastructure, civil construction, and heavy industry sectors in the UAE, where environmental conditions demand high-performance materials.

While we finalize the opening of our Dubai branch, we are already supporting the UAE market with specialized microstructural analysis in full compliance with international standards. All tests are conducted at our headquarters in Italy, ensuring the quality and durability assessments required for the Middle Eastern market.

ANALYSIS OF METAL ALLOYS

ICP-OES spectrometry is a premier technique for the qualitative and quantitative chemical analysis of metals and alloys, performed through sample dissolution. While we finalize the opening of our Dubai branch, we provide the UAE industrial sector with access to this advanced technology to ensure rigorous control of material chemical composition.

All analyses are conducted at our specialized laboratory in Italy, ensuring the highest standards of precision and reliability. Clients can communicate directly with our Italian experts and arrange sample shipments to our headquarters to receive certifications that meet international requirements.

additive manufacturing testing

ICP-OES spectrometry is a high-precision technique for the chemical analysis of metals via sample dissolution, essential for verifying alloy compliance. In anticipation of the opening of our Dubai branch, we provide this specialized service to the Oil & Gas, construction, automotive, and manufacturing sectors throughout the United Arab Emirates.

All ICP-OES analyses are conducted at our headquarters in Italy. Clients can communicate directly with our Italian experts and arrange sample shipments to our facility. This ensures accurate results and certifications in line with international and European standards, required for the highly technical Middle Eastern markets.
