Micom: Still Operating During the Construction Holiday
While many take advantage of the construction holiday for a well-deserved break, Micom keeps going. Although important for the construction industry, these holidays do not slow down our operations. At Micom Laboratories, our equipment runs 24/7 to ensure the continuity of material testing necessary to assess the quality and safety of our clients’ products.
Maintaining Productivity
While other sectors take a break from July 21st to August 3rd, Micom Laboratories will continue to operate at full capacity. Conducting activities during this period is essential for our clients to meet their production and launch deadlines.
Based in Montreal, specifically in the western part of the island in Baie-d’Urfé, our laboratories will remain operational without interruption, thanks to good planning and a dedicated team. We provide services to companies that cannot afford to slow down their activities, ensuring that projects progress smoothly.
Our Core Services
As a material testing laboratory, we offer a wide variety of tests based on our clients’ diverse requests, including:
- Climatic and Environmental Testing: Evaluation of material resistance to extreme conditions such as humidity, temperature, and thermal cycles. For example, we can test the durability of an exterior coating by simulating freeze-thaw cycles.
- Corrosion Testing: Measuring material strength in saline, chemical, and industrial environments. We conduct salt spray tests to simulate exposure to marine conditions.
- Mechanical Testing: Evaluation of mechanical properties, including tensile, compression, bending, and impact resistance. For instance, we test the tensile strength of new metal alloys for the automotive industry.
- Aging Testing: Simulation of material aging under the influence of environmental factors such as UV, heat, and humidity. We can simulate prolonged sun exposure to assess the degradation of polymers.
- Packaging Testing: Evaluation of the strength, durability, and performance of packaging under various transport and storage conditions. We test packaging under vibration to simulate transport conditions.
