Properties of Plastic and the testing thereof

Defining a plastic's full capabilities may be a lengthy task, but defining it's suitability to a given scenario makes life a lot simpler. The standard physical properties are simple enough to quantify with the correct tools and equipment. The base density, tensile, compressive and flexural strengths do a good job of summing up a plastics ability in a perfect world. The complexity comes in defining its application environment and ensuring that the conditions don't detract from a products abilities.

Showing your customers that a product will perform in the environment they need it for is all they care about. Our goal is to deliver test reports that are targeted at your customers in a clear and presentable manner to help them visualise the suitability of your product for their application.

We asked 4 Ward Testing to carry out testing on a construction industry material that was not easy to handle , to help us achieve CE Marking approval . The organisation did this without complaint and along with the after service care , we are pleased to use them again for future testing and projects.

Reviews From Our Happy Clients
We had a requirement to test a sample of a large stock of face masks, to ensure their suitability for use by those supporting the response to the "COVID pandemic".  4ward Testing were recommended to us and they delivered their report well within the agreed timescale. I was impressed with their recognition of the urgency this work required and communications with Polly & Anthony were excellent so I would have no hesitation in using their services again, or in recommending them to others!
