Climatics » Fungus Contamination Testing for Harsh Environments

Fungal growth threatens the performance and durability of materials, electronic components, and coatings — especially in tropical, humid, or sealed environments. At E-Labs, our fungus contamination testing service recreates real-world environmental stresses to assess how your parts, assemblies, or materials hold up against fungal attack.

Our advanced testing facilities allow us to recreate high-humidity, high-temperature environments where fungus growth thrives. By exposing your materials to these conditions, we can assess their susceptibility to fungal contamination and help you develop strategies to mitigate these risks.

Why Fungus Testing Matters:

• Prevent material degradation & component failure
  Fungi can cause corrosion, coating breakdown, insulation damage, and mechanical deterioration, often at microscopic levels before visual signs appear.
• Validate coatings, treatments & material choices
  Use the results to compare protective finishes, material blends, or sterilization methods under controlled fungal stress.
• Reduce long-term maintenance & warranty risk
  Early detection of susceptibility helps avoid costly field repairs, recalls, or product downtime.
• Support regulatory or specification compliance
  Many industries require resistance to microbial growth per MIL-STD, ASTM, IEC, or other standards.

Industries & Applications:

• Aerospace / Avionics
• Military & Defense
• Consumer Electronics (e.g. Sealed Enclosures)
• HVAC, Refrigeration & Cooling Systems
• Marine / Offshore Equipment
• Medical Device Enclosures
• Specialty Coatings & Protective Finishes
