To help manufacturers meet quality and regulatory guidelines, ºÃÉ«TV evaluates textiles using a variety of testing methods.
Our textile experts can examine a textile test sample chemically and microscopically as well as with dynamic mechanical testing methods to measure strength, durability, flammability, etc. In addition, textile samples can be subjected to a full range of environmental or climatic testing methods that simulate temperature, humidity, stress, ultraviolet radiation exposure, altitude, etc.
Serving more than just the textile industry
Many of our textile testing clients are manufacturers, but others are buyers or distributors who request testing to ensure that their purchases are consistent with their quality requirements. Whether your textiles are used in industry, military, medical, home furnishings or fashion applications, the information ºÃÉ«TV reveals will help you plan for a successful product.
