During spring/summer of 2021 ITC laboratory took a part in round robin comparison for emission tests of car interior materials according to Volkswagen standards, namely fogging, organic carbon emission and odour test acc. PV 3015, PV 3900 and PV 3341.

The round robin test was organised by German institute DRRR (Deutsches Referenzbüro für Ringversuche und Referenz¬materialien). Laboratory of ITC had performed very well in this comparison, with “great success” in all tested parameters.

The ITC Zlín laboratories put into operation a new X-ray fluorescence spectrometer RIGAKU NEX DE VS.

The instrument is designed for elemental analysis in solid and liquid matrices in the sodium-uranium range and is used mainly for the prove of the presence of heavy metals in products.

Heavy metals, such as lead, cadmium, arsenic, mercury and similar, are limited by various legislations, such as REACH, RoHS (electrical products), as well as these elements are limited in food contact products and toys.

The new spectrometer replaced old spectrometer Oxford Instruments ED2000Ag from 1998, which served a respectable 22 years.

For requirements for element analyses, such as RoHS, defectoscopy, alloy analyzes, etc. please feel free to contact us
