For testing the abrasion and pilling resistance of all types of fabrics and other materials. The Martindale is a versatile instrument capable of multiple abrasion and pilling tests. It uses precision components to deliver the exact abrasion or pilling movement required by all international and retailer standards.

To determine the abrasion resistance of textiles, fabric, vinyl, leather, stitched seams, and other materials. The Wyzenbeek Abrasion Tester for Textile & Leather is a four station oscillatory abrasion tester used to determine abrasion resistance of fabric, vinyl, leather, stitched seams, and other materials. Each station holds a specimen taut and utilizes contoured foam pads to apply pressure while an abradant (typically duck cloth or wire mesh screen), which is affixed to the oscillating drum, abrades the specimens for a prescribed number of cycles.

To rapidly determine wet and dry abrasion resistance of flexible materials including textiles, paper, leather and plastics; Samples are rapidly tumbled within a cylindrical test chamber lined with an appropriate abrasive material. The tumbling action is provided by a propeller shaped rotor for a predetermined time at a predetermined speed. Can be specified with rotors and liners for ASTM/AATCC tests or for M&S Tests (Accredited Suppliers only).

Precision colorfastness testing in a compact, modern design; Color fastness to washing or dry cleaning is easy and affordable with the Rotawash. It`s the perfect instrument for smaller testing needs. Available in an 8 or 12 container model, this instrument can handle either the 550 ml or 1200 ml containers.

The only approved colorfastness to washing instrument for over 50 years; AATCC specified the Launder-Ometer as the only approved colorfastness to washing instrument for over 50 years. It has proven its reliability and durability over these many decades. It is designed to conduct colorfastness to washing and dry cleaning in compliance with all major international standards for low temperature wash colorfastness testing.
