A full instrumentation for all tests on construction materials, for a laboratory motor of innovation.
Hackthemat is a laboratory for tests on construction materials with dozens of equipment, largely computerized, able to carry out hundreds of tests, to assist the customer with his formulations, to characterize physically and morphologically most of commercially available materials. Very original in its conception, it has a team of technicians, with most assorted skills, that can meet different demands. In the laboratory are always available hundreds of raw materials, dozens of substrates, additives, resins, mineral fillers and natural reagents from the 5 continents. Such a development capability allows us to create the most elaborate formulations.
With us, research serves environment, to find new technological solutions that combine quality and technology. Hackthemat can operate on very complex test campaigns that go well beyond the methodological limitations of standards. The laboratory has a system of assistance to the formulation Rosetta 2.0 - Cloud Lab 1.0 and iNephos 2.0 developed internally. This system is able to track and manage all lab operations in a centralized way. Among the equipment stand out systems for the dynamic measurement of shrinkage and movement through non-contact laser interferometry, the first Italian installation of Morphology equipped with RAMAN spectroscopy and a SEM equipped with X-ray microanalysis.
- Each process, laboratory experiment and customer feedback is recorded and cataloged.
