PMI Inspection

PMI Inspection

At VAPQ Real Defect, we specialize in delivering PMI (Positive Material Identification) Inspection services that ensure precision, consistency, and compliance with international material verification standards. PMI is essential for confirming alloy grades, preventing material mix-ups, and ensuring the right materials are used in critical applications.

Each PMI inspection is performed using certified XRF and OES analyzers, following ASME, ASTM, ISO, and API material verification requirements to guarantee accurate chemical composition analysis and repeatable results across all industrial environments.

We support refineries, fabrication units, process plants, and maintenance teams with fast, reliable on-site PMI verification—ensuring that pipes, valves, fittings, welds, structural materials, and pressure parts meet required specifications.
