QUALITY
Matrix is committed to best practice and continuously improving to deliver superior products and services. We use leading edge materials technology along with automated manufacturing and strict quality management processes, to ensure the delivery of high-quality products that exceed customer expectations. Our Quality Management System is certified to ISO 9001:2015.
To ensure the properties and performance of our materials, Matrix undertakes vigorous product and verification testing. These tests confirm that all products are fit for purpose and are in line with the requirements of international quality standards, such as ISO-13628-16 and the American Petroleum Institute’s API 16F and API 17L, as well as other specifications set by clients and industry bodies.
In addition, Matrix has developed its own set of testing procedures that incorporate both industry and client driven standards. Designed specifically for its syntactic foams and thermoplastic material, the combined elements allow for a more comprehensive set of testing procedures.
