Mission

Support industry in addressing cold weather and icing issues, with a focus on training highly qualified people and developing world-class research and development programs.

History

AMIL is the only laboratory in the world accredited to qualify aircraft ground deicing/anti-icing fluids for icing protection and aerodynamic performance. Over the past 30 years, we have expanded our expertise to evaluate deicing/anti-icing strategies, icephobic coatings in controlled icing conditions. More recently, we have also been performing aircraft and airport runway deicing and anti-icing product performance tests and oxidation tests of catalytic carbon brake discs for runway deicing/anti-icing chemicals and taxiways. AMIL’s facilities are particularly well suited for conducting small-scale installations in highly controlled cooling, snow, and icing conditions.
