Why
is our R & D capability important to you?
- Performance
You Can Count On
The acoustic performance
of ALL IAC products and structures is thoroughly tested and recorded
in our laboratory, and in the field, so you can have complete confidence
in our published data and be sure that
our products will meet the required specification.
- Testing To International
Standards
All IAC products and
structures are tested in accordance and compliance with relevant international
test standards - such as ISO and ASTM - to ensure that test data is accurate
and meaningful.
- Developing Unique
Solutions
IAC's laboratories
aren't used solely for the development of mainstream product lines. We
spend just as much time tackling the special, often unique acoustic problems
of our customers and our laboratory is often crucial in developing a solution
that is both technically and commercially viable.
- A Rapid, Effective
Response
Having proper research
facilities within our business means that we can create and test prototype
products quickly and efficiently, without having to rely on outside agencies.
This is especially true with the adaption of certain existing products
- within hours of manufacture they can undergo testing to have their performance
verified.
IAC's laboratories
are not used exclusively for new product development. The periodic, on-going
testing of existing products is a vital part of our quality control programme,
ensuring that performance data is consistently accurate.
