FILTRATION STANDARDS

While Powder Technology Inc. (PTI) currently does not do in house testing, we can supply an ISO grade (ISO 12103-1) test dust to meet your filtration standard, air filter standard efficiency, SAE testing, or other testing needs. We can also, based on the filtration standard, procedures, and testing specifications, guide companies through the proper contaminant required to complete the needed testing.
