Remarks This "Expanded Polyurethane Proficiency Testing Scheme" began in 2012 (14 years), with the participation of primarily accredited laboratories from several countries. Throughout the scheme's development, it has contributed to identify areas for improvement for the testing laboratories, thereby strengthening their competence and serving as a support tool for monitoring the maintenance of that competence. The industry associated with the sector also benefits from the verification of the continued reliability of the company's laboratory results. If you wish to participate using an equivalent method or for any other query or request, please contact the organizer at +51997697652 or imilcezuta@gmail.com.
