Overview

Tiles are mostly tested to ISO 10545 which is divided into 17 sections. Apart from section 1 which is mostly relating to administration , the other sections require test equipment.

We offer equipment for most of the sections apart from for the chemical resistance test (these materials are usually available locally)

Below is a list of the equipment requirements for each test which can be found on individual pages of the web site
