Infrared Imaging
Energy Consumption
Thermal Modeling

Physical and Mechanical Properties

Strength Values (e.g. Tensile, Tear)
Moisture Resistance
Hydrophilicity and Hydrophobicity
Microscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy
Peel Strength of Adhesive Components

Vibro-Acoustical Properties

Sound Absorption
Airflow Resistance
Transmissibility and Dampening

Lydall performs tests based on international standards organizations such as ASTM and ISO, as well as OEM-specific requirements and our own strict quality standards. We understand the importance of meeting these requirements, and we have the knowledge and contacts to test your insulation package, parts and materials at appropriate and credible off-site facilities when necessary.
