Breakage, cracking, rupture, deterioration and under-performance of components are often caused by accident or misuse. But when a problem is observed shortly after the equipment is commissioned or before it reaches the end of its useful life, a product failure analysis is needed.

OUR EXPERTS SUPPORT YOU EVERY STEP OF THE WAY
Over the years, materials can degrade, crack or rust. However, these problems are not normal if they occur shortly after the equipment is put into service. And if they are repeated from one unit to another… there is certainly reason to investigate. Our experts in material failure analysis and metallurgy are able to give you the right information. Their reports will allow you to determine whether it is a manufacturing, installation, usage or maintenance defect.
Metals, ceramics, polymers, glass, wood, concrete, asphalt, composites, etc. From taps, parking slabs and wind turbine blades, we can analyze almost anything.
AS SMOOTHLY AND QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE
Our experts perform laboratory sampling and analysis to determine the origin of the deterioration or breakage and provide insight on the incident. As the potential causes are varied, and several stakeholders are often involved, we also evaluate the initial installation, the manufacturing conditions and any maintenance done. CEP’s methodology combines scientific knowledge base and effective communication so you receive a complete, transparent and trustworthy report.
CEP offers you an all-in-one service. With our state-of-the-art laboratories and equipment, we are able to analyze failures internally. We also have storage space that allows us to handle large parts.
