Fuel Tank Inspection and Material Testing for Cars and Motorcycles

Whether car, truck, motorcycle or quad, the fuel tank of every vehicle is subject to the highest safety regulations. Strict statutory standards apply to both the fuel tank and the materials from which it is made, requiring all components to pass extensive testing and inspection scenarios prior to series tank production.

We are recognized by the KBA (German Federal Motor Transport Authority - “Kraftfahrt-Bundesamt”) and authorized to provide technical services for testing fuel tanks meant for passenger cars, trucks, two-wheelers, earth-moving equipment, and agricultural machinery. Our comprehensive services also offer our customers material-specific tests to determine the suitability of all materials to be used in their fuel tanks.

Our experts implement all legally prescribed test procedures. This includes, among other things, testing permeation rate and swelling velocity, assessing tensile strength and elongation at break, cold impact testing, and analysis of mechanical strength.
