Textiles and Fabrics Laboratory Services

Textiles and Fabrics

Fabric and textiles testing is done to ensure compliance or adherence to strict government regulations as well as to ensure the integrity and quality of the product. Whether you need fiber identification, flammability resistance, performance testing, or product labeling, let us help facilitate your product testing, research, or development.

Fabric and textile testing is done to test the quality and integrity of a product. Using uniform testing procedures, manufacturers can have consistent results regarding the quality of their product.
