At the Mentor Innovation Center, there are a number of specialty labs with technological and scientific resources that empower us to help our customers everyday. It’s here where new ideas begin, where we test our materials for performance and help solve your most challenging issues.

The Concept Lab is where we transform ideas and concepts into prototypes and other solutions for our customers. We help bring our customers’ ideas to life with virtual prototypes, such as 3D renders and photographs, and physical prototypes that you can hold, touch and feel.
