Paints & Coatings

Ensure your paints withstand the test of time.

In the paint and coating industry, environmental test chambers play a crucial role in ensuring the quality and longevity of various products. Manufacturers use AES test chambers to simulate extreme conditions such as high and low temperatures, humidity fluctuations, and salt spray concentrations. This testing is essential for verifying the performance and durability of paints, varnishes, and coatings under different environmental stresses.

Environmental test chambers are used to assess a wide range of coatings, including architectural coatings (consumer paints), industrial coatings applied during product manufacturing, and specialized coatings for automotive refinishing, industrial maintenance, marine environments, and traffic marking. These coatings must be tested to confirm their durability and reliability in specific conditions, such as resistance to high or low temperatures, mildew, moisture, or salt spray. 

AES offers standard and customized environmental test chambers catering to various needs, from benchtop units to large walk-in rooms. Our chambers are designed to accurately simulate the conditions that coatings will face in real-world applications, ensuring they meet their intended performance criteria and maintain their quality over time.
