Tests & Environment
Testing products
Our high-tech knitted materials have undergone a variety of tests to meet today's requirements for both public and private environments.
The tests are carried out at Eurofins, RISE and Akustikverkstan Lab, which guarantees correctly performed tests, checks and values.
Our products have undergone tests that show their fire properties, emission levels and sound absorption ability.
These tests together give us good grades at both byggvarubedömningen and Sunda Hus that require that no harmful organic compounds (VOCs) are emitted and that they are fireproof, even the recyclability is factored into these ratings.
For us, it feels very good that our absorbents, which are mounted in many schools and preschools all over Sweden, do not contain any oddities.
We have also worked hard with acoustic measurements on our products to offer the most efficient sound absorbers on the market and throughout the journey we use healthy raw materials.
Tests for slits are made that show that the values of the fabrics exceeded 50,000 Martindale. At the same time, the hardening was also tested against nose and lint formation where the result was 3-4 on a 5-degree scale, where 5 are the best results.
The School of Textiles in Borås has been significant in the development of Acqwool from scratch but also in the development of new products.
Environmental policy
The materials Qwaiet and Qwiz are made of 100% pure wool and treated in a water-based process.
No chemicals are added in manufacturing or finishing, which is why we dare to say that the products from Acqwool are completely environmentally friendly.
We have installed solar cells on two of the company's roofs in order to manufacture our products with environmentally friendly and locally produced electricity.
