FAA Flammability Testing for Aircraft Interiors

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

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. 

A thorough and accurate test program limits your exposure to risk and the serious threat of smoke toxicity, ignition, and harmful by-product damage.
