Elektro microscopy Fibrecount has its own raster-electron microscope (SEM), as well as a transmission electron microscope (TEM). The SEM and TEM are used to identify asbestos fibres and ceramic fibres (chrystobaliet).

Electron Microscopy is a microscopic technique in which the electrons are used to form a clearer picture of the contents of the material. The resolution of an electron microscope is much higher than that of an ordinary microscope. Furthermore it can ascertain exactly which elements a material contains. Further information on the SEM and TEM microscopes can be found on the Wikipedia website.

Fibrecount also regularly makes its SEM and TEM microscopes available to its partners and local authorities for other applications. The microscopes are therefore used for independent quality testing, such as, for instance, forensic research following a fire.
