Asphalt Testing
Asphalt materials testing.
Intertek tests asphalt materials to industry standards and for R&D support. The asphalt laboratories perform analysis to global, industry and regulatory standards, including ASTM, AASHTO and other asphalt and petroleum industry criteria.
Asphalt lab technicians are NETTCP Certified, with over 60 combined years of testing experience. Participation in the AMRL PG Binder, Viscosity and Emulsified Asphalt Proficiency Testing Programs ensures that the lab delivers prompt, quality testing. Testing includes roofing and viscosity grading and asphalt binder testing.
