What are NDT methods?

NDT methods (Non-Destructive Testing) are inspection methods used to examine the integrity of materials, welds and structures without damaging the object being inspected. Common NDT methods include visual testing (VT), magnetic particle testing (MT), penetrant testing (PT), ultrasonic testing (UT), phased array ultrasonic testing (PAUT) and radiographic testing (RT/dRT).
Our broad range of services covers the necessary NDT inspection methods for every industry.

Our locations feature STUK-approved X-ray imaging facilities. In addition to this, we use a radiation-shielded office space built into a shipping container, which can be positioned as needed, for example, right next to the customer's production facility.
