- Design and development of testing methods for the assessment of innovative products
Tests and Standards
Mechanical tests on end product:
- Dimensional and safety requirements
- Stability, resistance to static load, impact and falls and fatigue tests.
Physical-chemical tests on raw materials:
- Physical and mechanical properties: tensile strength, elasticity, impact, abrasion, bending, colour, brightness, etc.
- Natural and artificial ageing: QUV, ATLAS Ci3000, climatic chambers, salt spray, thermal shock, moisture, etc.
Fire Performance Tests:
- Reaction and resistance to fire, toxicity of smoke
Acoustic Tests:
- Airborne sound insulation and sound absorption.
Aimed at manufacturers of:
- Façade cladding
- Roof coverings
- Coatings
- Refrigerator sandwich panels
- Structural panels
- Panels for reinforcements
