Heavy metals, migration, chemical resistance and composition testing for plastics, pipes and resins.
Heavy metals, migration, chemical resistance and composition testing for plastics, pipes and resins.
Our laboratory is equipped with state-of-the-art technology to provide accurate, reliable, and internationally traceable results. We ensure full compliance with regulatory standards to help you maintain product integrity, safety, and market trust.
Tests are grouped by type. Under each test you can see which products it is run on, so you can check it fits your sample before sending it in.
Measures dialkyl tin, cadmium, lead and mercury content using ICP-OES.
Measures dialkyl tin compounds (C4 and higher), reported as tin.
Measures the cadmium content.
Measures the lead content.
Measures the mercury content.
Checks what passes from the material into water, and whether it affects water meant for human consumption.
Measures dialkyl tin that has passed into water in contact with the material.
Measures cadmium that has passed into water in contact with the material.
Measures lead that has passed into water in contact with the material.
Measures mercury that has passed into water in contact with the material.
Checks for other toxic substances that pass into water in contact with the material.
Measures the total amount of material that migrates into food simulant A.
Checks that the material does not change the quality of drinking water it is in contact with.
