Comprehensive Forestry Product Quality & Safety Assessment
In today’s fast-paced world, ensuring the quality and safety of forestry products is paramount. Eurolab offers a comprehensive service that caters to the unique needs of the agriculture and forestry sector. Our team specializes in providing robust testing solutions for various forestry products, from wood-based materials to non-wood fibres. This service ensures that all forestry products meet stringent international standards, thereby enhancing consumer confidence.
Our process begins with an initial consultation where we understand your specific requirements and the scope of the testing needed. For instance, if you are dealing with lumber or plywood, our team will conduct tests for moisture content, density, and strength properties as per ISO 6303-1:2017 and ASTM D2392.
In case of paper products such as newsprint or printing papers, the focus shifts towards chemical composition, brightness, and mechanical properties. Here again, we adhere to international standards like ISO 529:2018 and EN ISO 2547-1:2016.
For non-wood fibres used in packaging or insulation, the emphasis is on biodegradability, thermal stability, and resistance to microbial attack. These tests are conducted as per ASTM D6943-18 and EN 15383:2007.
Our testing protocols are not only stringent but also flexible, allowing us to accommodate any special requests or custom requirements you may have. This ensures that our clients receive the most accurate and reliable results possible. By leveraging advanced analytical techniques like Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS), and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), we can provide detailed insights into the composition, structure, and properties of your forestry products.
The comprehensive nature of our service extends to safety assessments as well. We ensure that all forestry products comply with relevant regulations concerning hazardous substances such as formaldehyde emissions in particleboards or phenol formaldehyde resins used in adhesives. Our adherence to international standards like ISO 16007:2013 and EN 358:2014 guarantees peace of mind for our clients.
Our commitment to excellence does not stop at testing; we also offer detailed reporting services that include recommendations for improvement where necessary. This ensures that you are fully informed about the quality and safety aspects of your forestry products, enabling you to make well-informed decisions regarding production processes or sourcing strategies.
