Our automotive testing lab at ATS has the capacity to perform the BO 131-03 interior odor test for Ford automobiles. 

What is BO 131-03?

The BO 131-03 interior odor test defines the process used to test the odor arising from interiors that conduct air into the main cabin compartments of Ford automobiles. Our experts conduct the odor test as follows:

  • The sample material is hooked onto a wire ring and suspended in a jar (with or without water)
  • The sample is exposed to one of the 4 specified conditions for the pre-determined amount of time and temperature
  • Evaluation of odor from the jar is made by a third-party assessor, using a 6-grade scale to rate the intensity, ranging from not perceptible to extremely disturbing

After concluding the test, our experts prepare a test report which defines the methodology and findings.
