Flammability Testing
Atlas flammability testing products determine reaction to fire characteristics for a wide range of basic and finished materials used in various industries. Common test materials include polymers, textiles, additives, coatings, furnishings, wood and building products. These bench scale instruments produce precise analytical data used in fire safety engineering to predict full-scale fire performance. Test results are routinely used for research, performance based modelling, material development, product classification and quality assurance.
