Brands

• TessWeb: Online platform for accessing oil analysis results, managing sample submissions, viewing reports, and tracking analysis trends.

Products and services

• Oil Analysis Laboratory analysis of lubricating oils to detect wear, contamination, and changes affecting machine condition and reliability. Covers gas engines, hydraulic fluids, gearboxes, compressors, turbines, and automotive applications. For industrial operators needing predictive maintenance.
• Grease Analysis Laboratory analysis of lubricating greases to detect changes in consistency, viscosity, and oxidation stability. Includes FT-IR, ICP metals, NLGI penetration, RULER antioxidant, and drop point testing. For industrial maintenance teams managing greased components.
• Coolant Analysis Analysis of cooling system fluids to monitor long-term chemical reactions, detect coolant fitness for continuous use, additive depletion, and contamination. For industrial operators managing engine and process cooling systems.
• Transformer Oil Analysis Analysis of dielectric/transformer oils to identify problems before dangerous and costly unit failures occur. Includes dissolved gas analysis (AGD), furanic derivatives, and electrical insulation efficiency. For utilities and power generation operators.
• Fuel Analysis Analysis of fuels for transportation, construction, marine, agriculture, and power generation applications to detect and prevent contamination, component wear, clogged filters, and damaged injectors. For fleet operators and fuel users.
• Cutting Fluid Analysis Analysis of metalworking fluids for high-speed, high-production applications. Monitors contaminants to inhibit corrosion, determines pH stability, and provides filtration procedures. For metalworking and machining operators.
• HVAC Fluid Analysis Analysis of HVAC system fluids to detect water formation, wear particles, and harmful acids that compromise system efficiency. Over 50% of HVAC bearing failures are due to lubrication problems. For facilities operators and HVAC maintenance teams.
• Lubrication Services Consulting services including lubrication program design, lubricant storage and handling facility design, and lubrication procedure design to improve maintainability, safety, reduce unplanned downtime, and optimise availability. For industrial reliability and maintenance leaders.
• TessWeb Online Platform Web-based platform for managing oil analysis samples, accessing real-time results, printing sample jar labels, creating custom search filters, and generating reports. Provides online access to historical data and maintenance recommendations. For industrial clients using the company's laboratory services.
• Training Courses ICML certification preparation courses (MLA I/II, MLT I/II, LLA I/II), STLE CLS certification, oil analysis interpretation, predictive maintenance for wind sector and gas turbines, and specialised laboratory analyst courses. For maintenance professionals seeking certification.
