| Bradford views quality control as a proactive process for our entire
team. We know that the products that are made out of our coated fabrics must perform
flawlessly. Our Total Quality Management System begins with the testing of all raw
materials in our newly constructed A2LA Accredited Automotive Laboratory. This
cutting-edge facility is outfitted with the latest test equipment and is certified to
perform tests that are instantly acceptable by automotive companies and other advanced
technology customers. The U.S. Government has also approved our laboratory for the testing
of coated fabrics being manufactured for the military services. We conduct quality
audits throughout every phase of the manufacturing cycle and finished products are
subjected to a battery of the most comprehensive and stringent tests ever devised. |

Analysis of coated fabrics to predict future physical performance
•
Integrity evaluation of a material's resistance to abrasion, force, puncture,
flammability, and tear
•
Ultraviolet degradation and hydrolysis performance testing to simulate varying climates
•
Accelerated aging tests to simulate long term weathering and wear.
•
Hundreds of other test methods performed in an atmosphere of unparalleled excellence
•
WE ARE TS16949:2002 / ISO9001:2000 REGISTERED
All
this is facilitated by Digital Equipment's advanced MV 3100-90 closed-loop computer
interface that monitors our cutting-edge capabilities: high speed production, cost
analysis, R&D, finance and other plant operations -- and keeps our managers abreast of
changing conditions so they can provide the service our industry requires to lead the
world in advanced manufacturing of polymer coated textiles. |
