Testing Services
Advanced Composites consist of reinforcing textiles building blocks and specialty resin systems made from various manufacturing processes. Testing such materials requires not only a pure mechanical testing approach but an overall understating of the subject. THE BHOR LABORATORY (A DIVISION OF THE BHOR CHEMICALS AND PLASTICS PVT. LTD.) is a pioneer in the field of development and manufacturing of Technical Textiles, Matrix Resins systems, and Hotmelt Prepregs in India for the first time under one roof. This brings insight and understanding of the subject of advanced composites of carbon aramid and glass for aerospace, civil structural retrofitting and rehabilitation, seismic stress bearing modifications, corrosion protection of civil structures and other advances applications.
Bhor Laboratory is a NABL accredited (as per ISO/IEC 17025:2017 standard) in the field of composites, resin matrix systems and technical textiles. ASTM and ISO standards are used as guidance for the mechanical testing of composites and textiles.
We provide testing services to customers operating in aerospace, industrial and civil infrastructure segments.
