Natural Weathering
AZTEST's desert location offers excellent opportunities for natural weathering evaluations. Extremely hot and dry, the Arizona environment is the standard climatic measurement for any outdoor weathering needs. Natural weathering is the only true benchmark for weathering tests. Although very good, accelerated tests can never exactly simulate reactions to real outdoor settings with their inherent climatic changes. Natural weathering not only tests environmental effects, but also respects environmental integrity – using far less electricity than artificial weathering.
