A portable laboratory compliant with UNI / EN cultural-heritage standards

The IBIX Mobile Lab brings advanced laboratory techniques to the site to characterise the physical and chemical properties of the materials. Its modular structure compiles customised reports automatically, reducing time and cost, and the software is updated via the web. The analysis service can be provided by our technicians, or the lab can be purchased for your own team, with training.
