Our quality
Graded, bonded, and tested
Testing
We make it, then we test it
Most timber arriving in India carries a certificate from somewhere else. Ours is tested on the same site it is pressed on, so a batch can be checked before it ships rather than after it arrives.
- Block shear — bond strength and wood failure percentage, to EN 14080:2013
- Four-point static bending — bending stiffness and bending strength
- Moisture content — before grading and before lamination
- Glue-line thickness — measured against the adhesive specification
