Our Vision
Our vision is to be the first choice for quality, personal service, speed and accuracy in metals testing, and we have the highest standards in all that we do.
Investing in the Future
ASAMS is pleased to announce that it has been awarded a grant for a new milling machine through the New Anglia Small Grant Scheme, which is part-funded by the European Development Fund.
The new mill will enable us to machine components more efficiently and enable us to better handle exotic materials. This means that we'll be able to stay on the top of our game and continue to provide our ASAMS Amazing Service!
