Testing Rigor

In-House ISO 17025 Accredited Laboratory Protocols

Our internal testing laboratory operates around the clock, cutting coupons every 120 minutes across 6 mandatory mechanical and chemical performance checks.

01. Internal Bond Tensile Test

Standard: EN 319
Specimens (50 × 50 mm) are bonded to steel blocks and pulled perpendicularly until tensile failure. Ensures core resin cross-linking exceeds 0.40 N/mm² for P2 and 0.45 N/mm² for P5.

02. Bending Strength & MOE

Standard: EN 310
Three-point flexural testing measures Modulus of Rupture (MOR ≥ 13.0 N/mm²) and Modulus of Elasticity (MOE ≥ 2,050 N/mm²), guaranteeing zero shelf sag under design load.

03. 24h Thickness Swelling

Standard: EN 317 & EN 321 (V313)
Submerged in 20°C water for 24 hours. Swelling must remain below 14% for P2 furniture and strictly below 9.5% for P5 moisture-resistant flooring panels.

04. Climate Chamber Formaldehyde

Standard: ASTM E1333 & EN 717-1
1m³ dynamic environmental chambers maintain 23°C, 45% relative humidity, and 1 air change per hour. Exhaust air is analyzed via acetylacetone spectrophotometry.

Frequently Asked Questions (B2B Buyer FAQ)

Authoritative direct answers on specifications, compliance standards, and container logistics.

Every export container departs with an official Certificate of Analysis (COA) and Mill Test Certificate (MTC) detailing lot numbers, density, internal bond (EN 319), bending strength (EN 310), thickness swelling (EN 317), and formaldehyde emissions. Shipments are backed by active CARB Phase 2 / EPA TSCA Title VI certifier license numbers issued by recognized Third-Party Certifiers (TPC).

For US EPA TSCA Title VI (40 CFR 770) and California CARB Phase 2 compliance, primary qualification is verified using the ASTM E1333 large climate chamber method (with secondary factory production control via ASTM D6007 small chamber testing). For European CE compliance, emissions are certified under EN 717-1 1m³ chamber testing (≤ 0.05 ppm / ≤ 0.060 mg/m³) and EN ISO 12460-3 gas analysis, satisfying German ChemVerbotsV (E0.5) rules.

Our mill maintains strict timber fiber segregation under FSC-STD-40-004 (FSC Chain of Custody) and PEFC ST 2002:2020 standards. Commercial buyers requesting certified sustainable timber receive formal FSC Mix Credit declarations and our unique certifier code on commercial invoices, packing lists, and bills of lading, qualifying for LEED v4 and BREEAM sustainable timber credits.

Our in-house testing laboratory operates under ISO/IEC 17025 competence requirements and undergoes quarterly surveillance audits by external TPC certifiers (including SGS and Intertek). Automated statistical process control charts and monthly blind round-robin inter-laboratory testing guarantee absolute measurement integrity.

Under European Regulation (EU) No 305/2011 (CPR), Cuzi Particle Board issues a formal CE Declaration of Performance (DoP) under System 2+ conformity for EN 13986. Panels are certified for both EN 312 Class P2 (interior furniture fitments) and EN 312 Class P5 (structural load-bearing moisture-resistant flooring), with verified bending strength, stiffness, impact resistance, and reaction to fire.

Yes. In addition to standard CARB P2 / EPA TSCA Title VI boards, we formulate ultra-low emitting formaldehyde (ULEF) panels using modified MUF resins and 100% No-Added-Formaldehyde (NAF) panels utilizing polymeric MDI (pMDI) polyurethane resin systems. These achieve emissions comparable to natural unbonded wood (<0.02 ppm) and are pre-qualified for healthcare and educational green architecture.

For every export shipment, our international documentation department issues a full customs clearance pack: Clean on Board Bill of Lading, Commercial Invoice with EPA TSCA Title VI compliance statement, Packing List with palletized dimensions and gross/net weights, Certificate of Origin (COO / Form E / Form REX), ISPM 15 Heat-Treatment phytosanitary declaration, and batch Mill Test Certificates.

Buyers can request high-resolution PDF copies of our current certifier certificates. Each certificate features the official accreditation seal, certifier license number, and direct verification portal links (such as the FSC Certificate Public Dashboard and EPA-recognized TPC registries), enabling buyers to independently confirm active validity.
