Furniture is manufactured using different kind of wood materials typically from particle board, fiberboard and plywood. Pieces are assembled and joined using glues, adhesive bonds,fixing dowels and fastenings. Veneers are applied to protect furniture and produce an attractive finish.Since most furniture items are load-bearing it is critical that these joints and finishes can withstand the forces placed on them over their expected lifetime.
International test standards govern the mechanical testing of furniture materials covering bending strength, tensile strength, shear strength right through to the adhesive peel strength of applied coverings.
Whether it be storage furniture, desks, beds, baby cots, sofas, tables and chairs and many more items, you can rely on Mecmesin force and torque testing equipment to help you control the quality of your finished furniture and self-assembly components.
