ASTM Laboratory (American Society for Testing Materials)
 
ASTM Laboratory in CCRI is equipped for testing the following quality parameters of Coir Geotextiles as per ASTM Standards.
1. Wide width tessile properties - wet and dry condition
2. Elongation at Break
3. Thickness at specified pressures
4. Mass per unit area
5. Trapezoid tearing strength
6. Grab strength
Besides it has the ability to test the quality parameters of geotextiles stated above as per BIS standards and the ASTM Lab is capable of measuring the colour fastness to light. The ASTM Laboratory of CCRI is listed in the online ASTM international directory of testing laborataries for geo textiles by ASTM. The service charges for testing the quality parameters of coir geo textiles may be available with request to contact email id ccrikalavoor@yahoo.co.in or ccrikalavoor@gmail.com
