As an ISO/IEC 17025 accredited (CNAS) independent laboratory, we deliver professional simulation environment experiment services to predict product reliability under real-world conditions. Our accelerated aging, temperature/humidity, corrosion, and UV exposure tests help manufacturers and exporters comply with IEC, ASTM, ISO, MIL-STD, and automotive OEM standards (e.g., PV, GMW, VW).

- Packaging materials (plastic films, closures, laminated tubes)
- Medical devices (syringes, diagnostic cassettes, implantable device housings)
- Coatings, paints, and surface finishes (automotive clearcoats, industrial powder coatings)
- Textiles and synthetic leather (seats, upholstery, outdoor gear)
- Rubber seals, gaskets, and O-rings

- Salt spray (fog) corrosion – ASTM B117 and ISO 9227 (NSS, ACSS, CASS). 5% NaCl at 35°C for 96–1000 hours. Evaluates coated medical instrument housings and external metallic parts.
- Humidity freeze cycling (for vaccine carriers & cold chain packaging) – Custom cycle: -20°C for 16h → ramp to +40°C / 90% RH for 8h, repeat 10 cycles. Measures structural integrity and insulation performance.
For Coatings, Paints & Textiles
- QUV accelerated weathering (fluorescent UV) – ASTM G154, ISO 11507 (paints & varnishes). Cycle UVA-340: 8h UV at 60°C, 4h condensation at 50°C, total 500–3000 hours. Measures gloss retention (ASTM D523), color change ΔE (ISO 7724-2), and chalking.
- Cyclic corrosion (CCT) with salt spray + dry + humidity – SAE J2334 and ISO 16701. One cycle: 15 min salt spray (0.5% NaCl) → 4h 50% RH at 60°C → 4h 95% RH at 35°C. Reproduces real-world automotive chassis corrosion.
- Outdoor weathering (Florida/Arizona benchmark correlation) – ASTM G147 and G169. Our xenon chamber calibrated with reference blue wool standards (ISO 105-B02) to match 5 years subtropical exposure in 8 weeks.
- Water immersion & resistance to liquids – ISO 2812-2 (water immersion 7 days at 23°C) and ASTM D870. Checks blistering, adhesion loss (cross-cut test ASTM D3359) on coated plastics.
For Rubber, Elastomers & Sealants
- Ozone resistance (dynamic & static) – ISO 1431-1 and ASTM D1149. Ozone concentration 50 ± 5 pphm at 40°C for 72 hours under 20% elongation. Evaluate cracking on rubber seals and gaskets.
- Fluid resistance (fuels, oils, coolants) – ASTM D471 (rubber) and ISO 1817. Immersion in IRM 903 oil, CE 10 fuel, or brake fluid for 70h @ 100°C. Measures volume swell, hardness change (Shore A), and tensile retention.
