Corrosion Control Since 1996

About

CYP Group is formed by engineers, scientists, and specialists dedicated to infrastructure integrity and applied science. The organization continues the legacy of Dr. Lorenzo Martínez, a physicist trained at Stanford and a leading authority in materials science and corrosion engineering.

His work combined scientific rigor with real-world application, establishing the foundation for applying engineering to protect critical infrastructure and safeguard human life. Recognized with the National Prize in Science and Arts of Mexico, the Science and Technology Award of the Organization of American States, and as a Fellow of the Guggenheim Foundation, his contributions helped shape the field at both national and international levels.

Today, CYP Group carries this vision forward, translating science into practical solutions with precision, responsibility, and long-term impact.

Origins in Corrosion Control and Infrastructure Integrity since 1996.

We design, develop, and deploy solutions that extend asset life, improve reliability, and optimize industrial performance.

Our capabilities span corrosion prevention, advanced materials, chemical engineering, and infrastructure services across sectors including energy, transportation, marine, and manufacturing.

Driven by Purpose, Grounded in Responsibility to Advance Industry Through Applied Science and Engineering

We take responsibility for advancing the leading edge of applied science and engineering in industrial sectors.

Our focus is to bring new technologies into real world application consistently, safely, and at scale driving long term performance and infrastructure integrity.

In-house R&D as one of our Core Values

Our model integrates research, engineering, and execution.

We develop technologies in-house, validate them through testing, and implement them in real operating environments.

This ensures that every solution is not only scientifically sound, but operationally proven.

  • Founded as Corrosión y Protección, the group began with a focus on corrosion engineering and infrastructure integrity, addressing one of the most critical challenges in industrial systems: material degradation and asset failure.

  • More than 500 projects executed across energy, industrial, and public infrastructure, including the evaluation and protection of over 18,000 km of pipelines and critical systems nationwide.

  • A multidisciplinary team of over 120 engineers, scientists, and specialists, supported by decades of field experience and technical training in corrosion, materials science, and industrial systems.

  • Development of in-house laboratory infrastructure dedicated to materials science, corrosion testing, and chemical engineering. Technologies are designed, validated, and optimized under controlled conditions before real-world implementation.

  • Establishment of production and formulation capabilities for corrosion protection systems, including plant-based inhibitors and advanced materials designed for industrial-scale deployment.

  • A growing portfolio of 48 patented technologies across corrosion engineering, materials science, and applied chemistry, reflecting the group’s commitment to innovation and continuous improvement.

  • Active participation in international engineering and scientific communities, including AMPP (formerly NACE), and collaboration with academic and research institutions.
