Rock Island Test Facility

Hazardous & Non Hazardous Package Testing

The Edgewood Chemical Biological Center at Rock Island Test Facility is an ISO 9001-2000 registered state-of-the-art test facility capable of simulating all forms of air and surface transport through the use of three distinctly different vibration systems. Tests are performed to the customer specifications such as UN POP, Title 49, ASTM, MIL STD, ISTA, ISO, FED and DOT test requirements for the transportation of hazardous materials. This lab also does prototype, and pre- and post-production testing such as recertification inspection and testing of containers used in transport of lethal chemical agents.
