Rubber Testing

We have combined the science of laboratory analysis and technical problem solving on a broad range of materials-- especially polymer products.
Our services extend beyond the standard chemical and physical testing required to meet industry and government specifications, and includes technical assistance with compound formulations, development of new materials and processes, performance evaluations, and failure analysis.

Smithers' state-of-the-art laboratories are accredited to ISO17025 and can provide materials testing and technical consulting services in the following disciplines:

Analytical/Chemical Testing - Our chemical testing laboratories efficiently and accurately analyze raw materials and components of all types of products. Products are routinely tested using a wide variety of analytical methods and wet chemistry techniques to identify and quantify constituent materials. More

Mechanical/Physical Testing - Our physical testing laboratories perform a complete range of tensile, compression, adhesion, cyclic fatigue, and performance tests to ASTM, SAE, military and federal specifications, as well as numerous automotive specifications. We also assist in the development of tests and procedures to meet specific objectives. More

Laboratory Tire (tyre) Testing - We help tire manufacturers and raw material suppliers perfect tire technology and vehicle manufacturers to better understand how to design the vehicle system to obtain optimum performance with tires they purchase. More
