We established the first R&D and Quality Control Laboratory of Turkey in Protective Clothing Industry. The laboratory consists of two separate departments where the heat and physical tests are held. The raw materials (fabrics, accessories etc.) and finished products (protective garments) are tested in heat and physical test laboratories accordance to EN and ISO standards. New products are developed as a result of the tests and all controls are performed before CE certification. These controls enhance product reliability and expedite required processes.

Tested listed below are performed in our laboratories:

  • TS EN ISO 15025 Test method for limited flame spread (Limited Flame Spread (A))

  • TS EN 367 Method for determination of heat transmission on exposure to flame (Flame Heat Transfer (B))
