Asphalt products testing and inspection.
Asphalt and asphaltic materials are tested to industry quality standards and for R&D support. Intertek asphalt laboratories perform analysis to global, industry and regulatory standards, including ASTM, AASHTO, ISO, EN, and other asphalt and petroleum industry criteria. Asphalt quality control, quality assurance, and related expertise are provided.
Asphalt lab technicians are NETTCP Certified, and have years of asphalt testing experience. Participation in the AMRL PG Binder, Viscosity and Emulsified Asphalt Proficiency Testing Programs ensures that the USA asphalt lab delivers prompt, quality testing. Professional asphalt quality testing is also available in Europe. Asphalt materials testing includes roofing and viscosity grading and asphalt binder testing. Asphalt cargo inspection services are available on a global basis.
