- PV3900 – odour testing
- PV3900-leather (Leder) – leather odour testing
- PV3015 – emission of medium-volatile substances – fogging,
- PV3925 – formaldehyde emission
- PV3341 – TVOC emission
and
- PV3942 – chamber emission tests
Our laboratory is published on the list of accepted service laboratories (for VW50180, including PV3900, PV3900-leather (Leder), PV3015, PV3925, PV3341 and PV3942) on the ONE kbp-platform* of the Volkswagen Group https://www.vwgroupsupply.com/one-kbp-pub/en/kbp_public/homepage/homepage.html Excerpts from the laboratory listings relating to BOSMAL can be found here and here (PV3942).
The VW 50180 standard focuses on emission testing of vehicle interior components, aiming to improve air quality within the car cabin.
The purpose of these tests is to minimize the emission of harmful compounds that may affect the health and comfort of passengers, as well as the environment.
We invite you to collaborate with us and explore the emission testing possibilities we offer.
