ARTIS was created as a result of the reorganisation of Avon Rubber in 2007, and has been set up as a world class facility to serve R&D business needs. We house a mixture of existing and new, state of the art equipment with which we provide services to operations for material development & testing.
Our team of skilled engineers and scientists have at their disposal a comprehensive range of equipment to cover the compounding and manufacture of elastomer compounds and the subsequent physical, mechanical, and chemical evaluation of their properties. Our expertise stems from many years supporting a global manufacturing base serving the automotive and industrial rubber goods markets, covering a huge range of polymer types as well as non rubber applications.
ARTIS has registered experts in materials, engineering and failure analysis to assist in establishing liability for product failures. ARTIS can provide expert support at all stages of a dispute from mediation to acting as expert in litigation, including at trial. Specialist areas include material and part failure analysis, material composition and physical/chemical changes in service.
