Why Materials Testing Is Critical in Automotive Engineering

Modern vehicles rely on a complex interplay of materials—from high-strength polymers to advanced composites and metals. Whether it’s for body panels, seals, under-hood components, or electrical enclosures, these materials must pass stringent quality checks to ensure:

• Passenger safety

• Performance efficiency

• Regulatory compliance

• Durability under stress and aging

That’s where Kiyo R&D Center delivers unmatched value.

Specialized Testing for Every Automotive Challenge

At Kiyo, we go beyond routine testing. Our lab is equipped with advanced tools and a skilled team capable of addressing even the most specialized challenges in automotive R&D. Our core service areas include:

• 🔹 Tensile & Flexural Strength Testing – Confirming mechanical reliability under load.
