RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C., USA, February 17, 2020— Labs may now register online for the new and improved 2020 AATCC Proficiency Testing Programs (PTP).
Improvements include a new Moisture Management Proficiency Program, and upgrades to current programs. The 2020 PTPs offer exciting opportunities to ensure your lab’s textile testing capabilities.
New Features for 2020
Introducing the Moisture Management Proficiency Test (Limited Round)
Featuring fabrics for labs to perform moisture management test methods covering wicking, drying rate, and comfort:
The Colorfastness PTP is also new and improved with alternating test methods added for each round. The Fiber PTP includes fabrics which are shipped blind for identification and analysis.
If your lab performs AATCC Test Methods and Evaluation Procedures, you can benefit from proficiency testing. The AATCC Technical Department works with experts from the AATCC Research Committees to develop and source fabrics which incorporate fiber blends, finishes, and technologies that provide challenges for textile testing labs. Results are submitted by each lab, and a statistical report is distributed. Whether you’re operating an in-house lab or a commercial textile testing lab, interlaboratory testing helps to improve the accuracy of your results.
The AATCC Proficiency Program now covers seven areas, including Antibacterial, Appearance, Color Evaluation, Colorfastness, Fiber Analysis, Resistance & Repellency, and Moisture Management.
