Materials Metric

Materials Metric is a U.S-based contract research organization (CRO) providing advanced materials characterization, analytical testing, and R&D support for organizations developing high-performance materials, products, and systems. We work with teams across biotech, medical devices, pharmaceuticals, energy and battery technologies, aerospace, automotive, construction materials, polymers, electronics, and advanced manufacturing that require accurate, defensible data to support innovation, scale-up, and regulatory readiness. Our expertise centers on materials testing and analytical services for complex and non-standard problems where routine laboratory testing is insufficient. We design custom, fit-for-purpose studies grounded in materials science, analytical chemistry, and biomedical engineering, aligning methods with the specific material system, application environment, and downstream data use. Our service portfolio includes materials and surface characterization, chemical and spectroscopic analysis, thermal and mechanical testing, polymers and biomaterials analysis, failure and root-cause analysis, antimicrobial and biofilm testing, biocompatibility and preclinical studies, histology and imaging, assay development, and custom method development, supported by computational & data-driven analysis. Materials Metric operates under an ISO 9001:2015–certified quality management system and follows GMP- and GLP-aligned practices, ensuring data integrity, traceability, and reproducibility. Our workflows and documentation standards support R&D decision-making, supplier and partner qualification, technical due diligence, and regulatory-facing activities. We routinely support projects from early feasibility and proof-of-concept through validation, scale-up & commercialization across regulated and non-regulated industries. At Materials Metric, clients work directly with senior scientists. Our mission is to help organizations move faster & smarter with data they can trust.
