Applications

Material & Supplier Qualification

Qualify the Right Materials. Trust the Right Suppliers.

When parts arrive at your facility, they might meet print specs—but still fail in production. That’s because surface quality, especially for adhesion-critical parts, often isn’t visible and isn’t measured. Brighton Science gives you a way to define, inspect, and enforce surface performance requirements, so you can qualify the right materials and hold suppliers accountable.

Whether you’re setting specs, selecting materials, or managing supplier quality, Surface Intelligence helps you make confident, traceable decisions from the start.

Why It Matters


When you set a surface specification, you're defining the conditions required for adhesion or coating success. But that spec only works if it can be measured—by you and your suppliers. Brighton Science helps teams validate both: the material’s surface properties and the supplier’s ability to hit target performance. We help you take control by establishing surface performance specs, qualifying suppliers, and creating inspection routines that catch problems early.
