Fire Laboratory
Accredited Laboratory according to ISO/IEC 17025
Tests conforming with Regulation UN ECE R-118
FIRE TESTING LABORATORY FOR THE AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY
We evaluate the fire behavior of vehicle components and materials in accordance with Regulation UN ECE R-118, national and international standards and OEM specifications. We carry out the tests defined in Regulation UN ECE R-118 to assess fire behavior (flammability, combustion index and melting behavior) and the ability to repel fuel or lubricant from materials used in vehicles of category M3, classes II and III.
