Comprehensive Corrosion Testing Services
Our salt spray testing lab specializes in evaluating corrosion resistance for materials and coatings exposed to corrosive environments. With over 20,000 completed projects in salt fog testing and environmental simulation, we help manufacturers across automotive, engineering, building and furniture industries ensure their products meet rigorous durability standards.
Understanding Salt Spray Testing
Salt spray testing is an essential method for determining how materials withstand salt deposits and corrosive conditions. You can choose between Neutral (NSS), Acetic Acid (AASS), and Copper Accelerated Salt Spray (CASS) variants of Salts Spray within the same standard method ISO 9227. The choice is often dependent on the physical coating itself, and also how high the bar of requirements is set and warranty of the product that is tested.
Our qualitative chambers create artificial atmospheres that simulate exposure to damp, heat, and salty conditions, helping manufacturers evaluate corrosion resistance and finding anomalies in various coating processes.
ASTM B117 & ISO 9227 Standard Practice
Our lab conducts salt spray tests following ASTM B117 and ISO 9227 standards, the industry benchmark for operating salt spray apparatus. This standard practice ensures consistent, reliable results when testing various products and materials.
Advanced Testing Capabilities
Our salt spray testing lab features reliable equipment for comprehensive corrosion testing. We perform salt fog testing, salt mist testing, and environmental simulation across multiple chamber configurations. These testing capabilities enable precise evaluation of coatings, metals, and electrical components. When allowing the temperature, relative humidity and rain/salty fog to vary according to a carefully developed cycle the outcome is likely to correspond to the outside environment.
Salt Fog Testing Applications
Salt fog environments are crucial for testing automotive components, aerospace materials, and electrical devices. Our cabinets maintain controlled temperature and salt solution parameters to simulate decades of exposure in accelerated timeframes. The results become extremely trustworthy and provide a foundation for economic and sustainable decisions.

Industries We Serve
We provide spray testing services for diverse industries requiring corrosion resistance verification. Automotive manufacturers rely on our expertise for paint and coating evaluation. Engineering and building industries trust our testing for critical components. Furniture manufacturers use our services to ensure their products withstand the more harsh environments.
Testing Process and Evaluation
Samples undergo controlled exposure in our salt spray chambers following established testing needs. Our technicians conduct visual inspection and quantitative assessment to determine corrosion formation patterns. We evaluate specimens based on rust development, coating degradation, and overall performance metrics. The evaluation methods are often standardized like ISO 10289 where both white corrosion (A – Appearance) and base metal corrosion or red rust (Rp – Rust protection) form grades in terms of Area affected (%).
Environmental Simulation Excellence
Our salt spray systems accurately simulate marine and coastal corrosion conditions in controlled laboratory environments. This environmental simulation helps manufacturers understand how steel, aluminum, and other materials perform when exposed to salt fog over extended duration periods.
Compliance and Standards
Beyond ASTM B117 and ISO 9227, our salt spray testing lab ensures compliance with industry-specific requirements. We help manufacturers meet testing needs for various certification standards, supporting product development and quality assurance.
