Make an EnquiryMetallogic Solutions Ltd. provides independent metallurgical consultancy to clients within manufacturing, primary processing, power generation and more.
I am a Chartered metallurgist (CEng) with several years of experience working in the UK nuclear industry — including immobilisation science, low-activation & radiation-tolerant materials for fusion devices and high-value castings.
I work directly with clients on their terms — because while everyone would benefit from a metallurgist, you may not need one all of the time.
