Human performance through human factors…
Tantalum is the 73rd chemical element on the periodic table and is known for being highly corrosion-resistant. In fact, Tantalum is added to other metals to augment their structure (i.e., strength, ductility, no immune response (surgical instruments & implants). The augmentation characteristic of the chemical element Tantalum is the inspiration for Tantalum Limited Liability Company (LLC).
