Chemical testing of wood and wood-based materials
We deal with the determination of trace elements and selected chemical compounds in wood and wood-based materials, including wood-based panels, furniture, wood packaging, post-consumer wood or wood waste. As part of our scope, we also test the sand content of wood-based panels and the ash content of polyurethane and latex foams as upholstered furniture fillings.
Chemical testing of wood and wood-based materials – our offer:
Determination of trace elements: cadmium, chromium, nickel, copper, lead, arsenic, zinc, mercury:
PN-EN ISO 16968:2015-07
Determination of chromium (VI) content:
US EPA method 3060A i US EPA method 7196A
Determination of pentachlorophenol (PCP) and hexachlorocyclohexane (lindane) content:
CEN/TR 14823:2003 by gas chromatography
Determination of sand content in wood-based panels:
ISO 3340:1976
Determination of ash content in polyurethane and latex foams:
PN-ISO 1171:2002
PN-EN ISO 1172:2002 metoda A
Our research reports are recognised in all signatory countries of the ILAC MRA Multilateral Mutual Recognition Agreement.
