We’re proud to announce a major expansion of Element’s Huntsville laboratory - strengthening our ability to deliver mission-critical testing, inspection and certification for aerospace, space, energy and defense customers. With expanded infrastructure, engineering expertise and services across environmental, dynamics and EMI/EMC, customers can run end-to-end qualification programmes in one facility - reducing handoffs, simplifying logistics and accelerating time to market. Capabilities include vibration, shock, MIPS, thermal, vacuum, acoustic and electromagnetic compatibility testing - supporting programmes from early development through qualification and sustainment. We’ve also launched dedicated product qualification testing for small modular reactor (SMR) programmes – an industry first - helping developers and supply chain partners assess structural integrity, fatigue and long-term durability, and verify safety-critical performance and regulatory compliance.

We’re proud to share that Element has been shortlisted for Best Health & Safety Project at the Safety and Health Excellence Awards for our Zero Harm programme in Aerospace & Defence. This recognition matters because it reflects the work happening every day in our labs. Behind this recognition is our team. Colleagues taking the time to understand risk properly, having open conversations, and making practical changes that keep people safe. So thank you to all our colleagues who are making safety a non-negotiable part of how we work, not something separate from it. Winners announced on 1 July. #MakingTomorrowSaferThanToday #Safety #SHEAWARDS

🌍 Happy Earth Day! This year’s theme, “Our Power, Our Planet,” reminds us that progress starts with the choices we make every day. At Element, our purpose of 'Making Tomorrow Safer Than Today' includes supporting customers with testing, inspection, and certification services that drive sustainability across products, infrastructure, and technology. As part of this, we’re proud to invest in a lower carbon future, including a multi-million dollar commitment to advanced hydrogen testing, as well as other exciting new capabilities to support the world’s transition to cleaner, more sustainable power. And this week, internally, we have launched a 10% energy reduction program across all sites, empowering our teams to use energy more efficiently by introducing small, simple actions every day. Together, we’re building a safer, more sustainable world - one decision at a time.

Speed and certainty do not have to be at odds in the space industry. In our latest interview, one of our General Managers in Aerospace & Energy, Harry Mueller, discusses how leading organizations are rethinking the role of testing as systems grow more advanced and mission timelines continue to compress. The takeaway is clear. Waiting until the end to validate performance is no longer enough. At Element Materials Technology, we approach product qualification testing and materials testing as an integrated part of development. Our PQT labs are designed to replicate the environmental and mechanical stresses components will face in service, helping uncover issues earlier and reduce downstream risk. For teams building for space, this shift is critical. Better data earlier in the process leads to stronger decisions, more predictable schedules, and greater confidence at launch. Take a few minutes to hear Harry’s perspective and how testing is shaping the next generation of space programs. #SpaceIndustry #AerospaceTesting #Engineering #MaterialsScience #elementmaterialstechnology #MakingTomorrowSaferThanToday
