Evaluation of adhesives and wood-based bonded products

Evaluation of adhesives and wood-based bonded products
Tests to characterise adhesives and bonded products in order to assess their performance and establish compliance with current classification standards and requirements.

Accredited for over 20 years in the main characterisation tests for adhesives and bonded products used in the furniture/interior design and construction sectors, the teams at the Testing and Simulation Laboratory can meet your needs in terms of evaluation, classification and declaration of conformity for new or existing products.

We work with all stakeholders in these sectors: adhesive manufacturers, bonded product manufacturers, certification bodies, inspection agencies, experts, etc.
