The laboratory in Hangzhou has received over 200 new accreditations from CNAS, which relate mostly to analysis of textile and leather products with popular mechanical testing standards, such as GB/T 22853-2019 for knitted sportswear, GB/T 32614-2016 for water-resistant outdoor garments, FZ/T 73043-2012 for knitted shirts, and QB/T 2858-2007 for schoolbags.
With accreditation secured, the laboratory also develops new China GB testing standards for overseas and domestic customers, such as GB/T 22583-2009 for radiation-resistant knitwear, GB/T 22845-2009 for anti-electrostatic gloves, and FZ/T 73039-2010 for rubberised vibration-proof gloves.
In order to provide more comprehensive one-shop services to the market, accreditations and approvals held by the Hangzhou laboratory apply to additional products categories, including jewellery, toys, childcare products, furniture, packaging, and food contact materials.
The new accreditations secured by the laboratory in Shanghai also cover common chemical testing items, such as EN 17132:2019 determination of PAH, EN 17131:2019 determination of DMF, EN 17130:2019 determination of DMFu, and EN ISO 17226-1:2019 determination of formaldehyde, offering a wider test selection to our customers.
These new accreditation services strengthen the robust capabilities of our testing network in China, which covers a wide range of mechanical and chemical tests for various testing standards.
In addition to testing, the expert teams at the laboratories are able to deliver compliance services for buyers and suppliers, including labelling reviews, technical compliance files, and market access programmes.
