Fungus Testing

Tinton Falls is a USDA approved fungus lab with an on-staff mycologist. Our fungus resistance testing - also known as non-nutrient growth testing - is ideal for products intended for use in warm and humid climates. Since fungal growth is known to impede mechanical, electrical and optical functions - as well as pose certain infection and health risks - it is an imperative test to conduct. And with soil burial testing available, we offer wide-range fungal testing so there's no shortage of what we can test for you.

Our fungus testing services are designed to meet a myriad of US and European standards including:
MIL-STD-810 Method 508
RTCA-DO-160 Section 13
ASTM G-21
ASTM C1338 and other ASTM standards
