About Textile

Laboratories take up testing of Textile items viz., fibre, yarn, fabric, garments, made-up and textile auxiliaries for testing of various physical, mechanical, chemical and ecological parameters.
The laboratories adopt test standards of BIS, ASTM, ISO, IS, BS, etc., for testing of various textile items. Based on the need, many of the customer/buyers standards are also adopted to test the textile articles.
