Advanced Furniture Testing offers a comprehensive range of capability and compliance testing services. We're focused on furniture testing and helping our customers gain the compliance they need to sell more furniture in multiple markets! There is no need to go anywhere else!

Based on increasing customer demand, we added more cycle testing capacity to our furniture test lab. The additional capacity will help us to serve our customers better and in shorter time. Like all of our machines, the newly added machines are custom designed and built specifically for furniture testing. Our machines not only cycle and test furniture, but they also acquire invaluable information related to changes in deflection and force throughout the test. We offer this to our customers at no additional charge.
