Element's FAA-approved flammability laboratories specialize in providing flammability testing for the Aerospace industry.

FAA Approved Flammability Testing for Aircraft Interiors

Nadcap Accredited Laboratory Testing for Aerospace

Measuring flame characteristics of plastics and textiles, flammability testing of aircraft interiors is a vital part of any aerospace qualification program. These flammability tests measure how long it takes airplane cabin materials and products to burn, how easily they ignite, and how they react when burned.
