Apart from essential test facilities, we have special test equipments to test the following:

Scratch Performance
Fogging
Low Temperature Impact Strength
Charpy Impact Strength
Gloss Level Measurement
Light Fastness

Accelerated weathering,Hot-Cold thermal cycling with humidity control and provision to simulate IR Light - Large parts like IP and Bumpers can be tested.

Ball Drop test at room and lower temperature.

Thermal ageing of large parts.

HSSIL also supports customer in part design by providing stress-strain, young's Modulus and Poisson’s ratio

Tracking Latest Requirments of car Industries
