Materials Development
New materials development enables the creation of advanced devices,
lightweight load-bearing structures, increasing conservation of power and reducing
cost for technological breakthroughs that are changing the way we live,
learn, work and play.
The materials engineering section houses a team of experts in materials
engineering ready to support the technology division in developing concept
materials required by our Clients.

Materials Evaluation
To ensure that the new materials developed are of the specifications
required by our Clients, CPG Labs has its own in-house materials evaluation
laboratory. At CPG Labs, we not only produce materials specified by our
Clients, we make sure that the material is also internationally accepted by
known standards.

Building Materials
Materials development is further subdivided into three different areas, the
first being building materials.
This section specialises in testing and the research of new load bearing
materials, which can possibly replace concrete in some cases, as well as
chemical resistance materials for use in structures that are subjected to
extreme conditions.
Building repairs materials and recycled materials are also within its areas
of interests.

Polymeric Materials
The use of polymers in the construction industry has become more common.
Known for its high strength, it is able to strengthen existing structures
easily, amplifying their load capacities significantly.
We are able to perform studies on the synthesis, formulation and process
development of polymers and evaluate its physical and chemical properties to
ensure that the polymers can be used safely as a construction material.


Composite Materials
Fibre composites are materials commonly used in the construction industry.
As alternative materials are being developed, studies need to be carried out
to assess the effective use of other composites.
We have scientists here that specialises in high performance composite
material design, products and process development.
We also have experience in structural repairs, rehabilitation and corrosion
protection through the use of composite materials.
