  Textile   GENERAl information - textile research    
         
   

Our textile testing is aimed at the application of textile materials. Of course we also offer all kinds of standard tests. Feel free to ask for information if you are in need of something that is not listed on this website.

There are many companies that are able to test your textiles, but very few who combine this with knowledge of the industrial applications. Therefore we have specialised our self in this direction. In addition to all kinds of standard tests, we are also able to do "damage" research and mediation.

    Research possibilities    
   
Our capabilities of textile testing can roughly be divided in the following areas:
  • physical tests (e.g. tensile strength)
  • application tests (is the product suitable for a specific application?)
  • performance tests (how does a product perform under different conditions)
  • damage research (something has happened... What is the cause and who is responsible?)
  • quality evaluation (independent measurement of the quality of a textile package, this can be used as the basis for a taxation)
     
    
    Physical testing    
   
These test characterise a product and are almost always performed following international standards.

Tensile strength Determination of the tensile strength (wet or conditioned)
Threads Amount of threads in warp and/or weft direction
Specific weight Weight per m2

 

    
    Application research    
   
Measuring of specific application parameters to characterise if a product will meet the requirements

Isolating capacity

Measuring of the isolating capacity of e.g. quilts
Absorption capacity Absorbing capacity of incontinent material


 

    
    Performance testing    
   
With these tests we are able to test/predict how a product will perform under specific process conditions.

    Damage research    
   
For implementation of damage research we have developed a special basic research. Against small costs, frequently we can answer you sufficient on your questions at damage. If required, examination can be always more extensive and detailed.

Mate to measure research Customised research, this can be a combination of textile research, consultancy and mediation between parties
   

 

  


    Evaluation of quality level    
   
We have developed a special system for characterising the quality (value) of products. This system can be used to have an independent consultant determine the state of a larger amount of products that are already used.
