At Micom, testing is far more than simply a quote, a few samples and a test report. True, sometimes that is all there is to it, but more often than not, there will be deadlines, the specific requirements of the revision authority, questions, or, unfortunately, some products may fail a test.
At Micom, we guide you every step of your furniture testing project. We carefully prepare the test plan, to ensure that you won't be doing tests that would be redundant. That's right, not every unit of every line needs to be tested in order for them to be considered compliant. BIFMA uses, in all of its furniture testing standards, an approach based on worst-case scenarios. That means that with a few choice parts, you can usually cover a lot of that thick price book with less testing that you expected, provided that your construction processes are consistent across the range of your offfering.
