ASTM testing for metals, plastics, coatings, packaging and fuels.
Tensile, hardness, impact, flexural, melt flow, salt spray, adhesion, weathering, packaging and petroleum tests to ASTM methods, at labs whose accreditation scope lists the exact method. Reports accepted by overseas buyers, OEMs, PSUs and tenders.
Testing to the methods your buyers and tenders specify
Materials
Mechanical properties of metals, plastics and rubber: tensile, hardness, impact, flexural, melt flow and heat deflection.
Durability
Salt spray, coating adhesion and thickness, UV weathering and corrosion for coated and outdoor products.
Packaging & Fuels
Distribution testing, accelerated ageing and seal strength, plus petroleum product tests for fuels and lubricants.

What astm testing costs
One written quote covering every test, so there are no surprises when the report is issued.
Request received
Thanks. A BIS specialist will reply within one business day with your standard, test plan, cost and timeline.
Send it with one tap instead
The form couldn’t send just now. Your details are ready in a message, so you only need to press send.
Your ASTM testing in five steps
ASTM methods leave choices such as specimen type, speed and conditioning. We fix those with your specification before testing.
Standard & Test Plan
We confirm exactly which standard, clauses and tests apply, and why: certification, tender, export or customer approval.
Day 1Lab & Fixed Quote
We choose a lab whose accreditation scope covers your tests and send one written quote with cost and turnaround.
Day 1–3Samples & Documents
You send samples, datasheets and any drawings or specs. We check quantities so testing isn’t held up.
Day 3–7Testing & Updates
The lab tests to the plan. Early failures are flagged straight away so you can fix and retest quickly. Witnessing on request.
As quotedReport Review
We check the report against the standard and the authority it’s for before you submit it, then help with the next filing.
On completionWhy manufacturers use us for ASTM testing
Right Lab, First Time
We match your tests to a lab whose accreditation scope actually covers them, so the report is accepted by BIS, TEC, CDSCO, RDSO, a buyer or a tender committee.
One Point of Contact
Test plan, quotes, samples, follow-ups and report review are handled by one specialist, not passed between lab departments.
Testing Linked to Certification
Reports are planned for the approval you need next, from BIS and TEC to CE and FCC, so you don’t pay to test twice.
ASTM testing for businesses across India
We work with accredited mechanical, polymer and petroleum labs across India’s industrial clusters, including:
Common ASTM testing mistakes
Method Not in Scope
The lab must hold the exact ASTM method in its accreditation scope for the report to carry the logo.
Superseded Method Year
Specifications sometimes fix a method year; testing to a different edition can be rejected.
Wrong Specimen Type
Specimen geometry and orientation change results. Agree them with the buyer first.
No Acceptance Criteria
ASTM methods say how to test, not what passes. The limits must come from your specification.
Other testing we arrange
Electrical Testing
Safety, performance, temperature rise, IP and type tests for electrical products. See Electrical Testing.
