Laboratory Services
The quality and precision of Groz-Beckert products rests not only on high-quality materials and process reliability, but on in-depth analysis and the longstanding experience of the Groz-Beckert central laboratory. Groz-Beckert offers this expertise to outside clients and partners in order to jointly find optimization approaches and exhaust and leverage even tiny potentials.
The laboratory, housed in the Technology and Development Center (TEZ) at Groz-Beckert headquarters in Albstadt, is manned by an expert team from different fields, ranging from chemists and textile technicians to materials engineers. Many companies in the textile industry, in machine building, the medical industry, precision mechanics and metal-working companies within the automobile industry reap the rewards of Laboratory Services' vast knowledge and advanced technologies.
The offer is based on the modular principle and ranges from simple analyses to complete system analyses with proposals for optimization. Since summer 2020, more than 70 of our approximately 320 procedures used have been accredited according to DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025:2018-03.
