TALPA Inspection

New inspection method for corrosion localization

At start-up TALPA-Inspection, we specialize in innovative and interdisciplinary corrosion inspection solutions for hard-to-reach areas of engineering structures (e.g. reinforced concrete bridges) or any coated metal object, whether underground or in the air. Our cutting-edge technology uses an electrolyte (e.g. tap water jet or soil moisture) as an information carrier to deliver accurate results, ensuring the safety and integrity of infrastructure assets. Based on patented technology from ETH Zurich, TALPA-Inspection has proven the effectiveness of our advanced electrochemical measurement methods in several pilot projects. By detecting localized corrosion at an early stage, we enable cost-effective preventive maintenance, prevent structural failures and enhance public safety.
