At UAP we are constantly striving to improve on the products we already supply as well as develop new, pioneering ranges and practical product solutions.

With an in house testing centre and product developer, each stage of the development process is thorough, from the initial design right down to the final product. In house 3D printing technology allows for further and more precise advancement of our products which are then expertly manufactured and put through stringent testing conditions using in house test equipment – ensuring all products are designed to the highest standards: 

UV Sunlight Testing Machine

Used to test the colourfast of products, the UV machine measures the stamina of the escutcheon finish, testing how quickly it will fade in sunlight. It does this using UV lights which the products are left under for 2000 hours.

Salt Spray Testing Machine

This machine tests the corrosion resistance of the door hinges and many other products. The salt spray cabinet produces a corrosive environment, by releasing a dense saline fog into the chamber which the products are exposed to. This creates accelerated corrosion to the product and allows us to test how well the product would stand up in harsher environments. Stainless steel products are part of the Nanocoast range, and are salt spray tested to ASTM B117:2005 for 2,000+ hours, and we offer a lifetime coating guarantee on these products.
