Indoor air quality in vehicle cabins is commonly affected by volatile organic compounds (VOCs) released from a variety of materials used in automotive interiors. As a leading automotive testing company, Applied Technical Services has the capability to perform Volkswagen VOC testing methods for the manufacturer and its suppliers.
What is VOC Testing?
Our VOC analysis team detects these harmful compounds by using state-of-the-art equipment to test interior components, semi-finished parts, and other materials that may release VOCs. These chemical analysis experts provide original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and their suppliers with precise and repeatable VOC testing to help validate production processes, verify compliance with industry standards and specifications, and identify unwanted compounds to maintain the quality of their product lines.
VOC emissions concentrate in interior automotive spaces due to the off gassing of compounds from coatings, plastic, foam, leather, and textile materials. Concentrations of these VOCs may reach a level that negatively impacts passenger health. It is required by regulations and quality control standards throughout the automotive industry for manufacturers to manage VOCs in their products.
