Introduction

FILK offers clients the widest range of fire tests in Korea for the fire protection, construction, marine and other industries. As a KOLAS accredited laboratory, we can comprehensively test, predict and assess the fire performance of products and materials to various international test standards. Our fire tests may also form the basis of FILK Quality certification schemes or the requirements of other approval bodies, such as US Coast Guard, BV, and other shipping registers.

Classification

General testing : testing services to standards offered by clients through FILK quality system and test procedures Regulatory testing : testing for clients to enable them to demonstrate compliance with relevent standards and regulations set by the national and international approval bodies.
