Mold Growth Retardant Effectiveness Studies

As a result of what appears to be a growing problem with Mold Growth in our environment and on various types of building materials, products have been developed to combat such problems. Several test procedures have been developed for evaluating such products and are now in constant use in Northeast Laboratories. Following is a list of the procedures. However we also posses the capabilities to custom design procedures for a specific use or product.

• Enumeration and Identification of surface and airborne molds
• Resistance of Synthetic Polymeric Material to Fungi ASTM G21
• Resistance to Growth of Mold on Surface of Interior Coatings in an Environmental Chamber ASTM 3273
• Fungus Resistance of Paper and Paper Board TAPPI 487
• Mildew (Fungus) Resistance of Paper & Paperboard ASTM2020
