Quality and safety are two requirements that are always in demand in materials intended for the manufacture of automotive components.
One of the main objectives of the automotive industry (car manufacturers and suppliers) is to continuously improve the properties of materials used in part manufacturing for car interiors. These improvements involve continuous control in the development of the different raw materials used as well as the components and complete systems installed in the vehicle.
Emission tests on car interior components are highly demanded by companies in the automotive sector since they must comply with strict legislation and need to assess the emissions present in the air inside the car.
AIMPLAS’ laboratories were the first Spanish laboratories to obtain ENAC’s international accreditations for odour emission tests in car interiors.
In our laboratories, we conduct tests on volatile substances that may be emitted by different materials such as plastics, textiles and leathers inside the vehicle. These tests are carried out according to the specific standards of the main manufacturers, such as VW/Audi, BMW, GM, PSA Peugeot Citroën, Ford, Toyota, Saab, Porsche and Daimler-Chrysler.
