Leading expertise and precision in sample transformation at our state-of-the-art laboratories or with you at the wellsite
We prepare a diverse array of solid samples, irrespective of their shapes and sizes, ranging from geological specimens to concrete and plastics for a wide range of sectors, including renewable energy, CCUS, mining, waste management, and construction.
Our commitment to excellence is underpinned by a well-experienced team that employs the latest techniques and cutting-edge technologies to consistently deliver the highest quality samples optimized to the needs of your project.
Samples tailored to your specifications
We work closely with you to ensure that thin sections are optimized for the specific analyses you require; final products can be customized in terms of size, thickness, staining, and the inclusion of cover slips and include:
- Thin sections prepared from cuttings, outcrops, and rock samples of different lithologies
- Specialized polished thin sections tailored for advanced analyses such as QEMSCAN, cathodoluminescence (CL) and fluid inclusion (FI)
- Coated stubs optimized for scanning electron microscopy (SEM)
- Concrete sample preparation - polished tiles and oversized thin sections
