Quality Assurance
Safety Testing
Laboratory FRAS tests include flame (finger burn), flame propagation (Mid-scale/B.E.L.T), drum friction and antistatic (static conductivity). Laboratory PHYSICAL PARAMETERS tests include tensile (dumbbell test), tear, elongation, cover adhesion, abrasion, fastener retention and troughability test.
Quality Assurance
Concern for quality and continual in-process testing and controls are the basis of excellent products that offer safe and efficient operation. INDICA™ products undergo on-going quality checks in its well-equipped laboratories and shop-floors, from incoming raw materials to finished products.
- Incoming raw material – yarns and chemicals – are tested on arrival to the standard a established with our suppliers.
- Every finished roll is tested for conformity to physical and FRAS test requirements of every user country or as agreed to between the customer and INDICA.
- Physical properties include width, thickness (belt & covers), tensile strength (warp & weft), elongation (warp & weft), adhesion (cover to carcass and internal), fastener retention (static & dynamic), cover abrasion, trough ability, etc.
- FRAS tests include flame (finger burn), flame propagation (Mid-scale/B.E.L.T), drum friction and antistatic (static conductivity)
