Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing
The Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing (German: Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung), or BAM, is a German research institute in the field of materials science.
The institute's origins start in 1871, the year in which Germany was unified, as the Mechanisch-Technische Versuchsanstalt. From 1904 to 1919 it was styled the Königliches Materialprüfungsamt. From 1920 to 1945 it was called the Staatliches Materialprüfungsamt (MPA). And from 1919 to 1945 there existed the Chemisch-Technische Reichsanstalt (CTR).
In 1954 the Bundesanstalt für mechanische und chemische Materialprüfung was founded, becoming the Bundesanstalt für Materialprüfung in 1956. In 1969 it became a government agency (Bundesoberbehörde). In 1986 the name changed to Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung.
Within the interconnected fields of materials, chemistry, environment, and safety, the main areas of focus are:
The institution is controlled by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action. Its competences are to improve safety in technology and chemistry through research and development, testing, analysis, approvals, advice, and information.
The headquarters are located in Berlin, near the Berlin Botanischer Garten station.
The Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing is subdivided into departments and divisions. The staff sums up to about 1700 members.
