Superior quality hot and cold mounting systems for every application.

Choosing the right mounting method depends on several factors.

Hot compression mounting is the most economical option on a per mount cost basis, however due to the compression force, may not be an option for samples with delicate structures unable to withstand the elements of heat and/or force of compression.
Cold mounting (where a mixture of resin is poured into a mold) may benefit from either vacuum (epoxy only) or pressurization to help eliminate and/or reduce bubbles, improving clarity and sample protection.
