The Applied Technical Services Family of Companies has an odor testing laboratory that offers odor analysis services. When exposed to specific conditions, manufactured products and materials can produce unpleasant and potentially nauseating odors. These odors are especially concerning in automotive vehicles because their presence can dominate the other aromas present in the vehicle’s cabin. Our service helps automakers analyze their products for the presence of unwanted odors, enabling them to address their concerns before the product reaches the market.
More About Our Odor Testing Lab
Our automotive testing lab helps manufacturers rid their vehicles of unpleasant odors that may compromise the consumer’s experience. We can subject samples to conditions that trigger and release odors, which allows us to analyze the presence of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The results of our services enable manufacturers to make the necessary adjustments to limit or eliminate the concentration of odor-inducing VOCs in their vehicles. We conduct odor tests in compliance with numerous standards for multiple car manufacturers, including:
- GMW 3205 GM

- VDA 270 BMW
- PV 3900 VW
