Testing is performed in accordance with the latest aerospace requirements and in addition, tests can be performed according to customer specific test procedures.
In 2016, our smoke and heat release chambers were modernized with the installation of state-of-the art equipment supplied by Marin Engineering, Dräger and Testo.
Our test bench (Testometric), flammability (Atlas) and conditioning chamber have been updated in previous years as well. With our modern test laboratory, we are ready to assist you with your testing needs.
