Tyre major has now been accredited with ISO/ IEC 17025 for the wet grip and coast-by noise tyre tests on the track
Apollo Tyres on Monday said it has become the first tyre manufacturer in India to get the coveted accreditation from National Accreditation Board for Testing & Calibration Laboratories (NABL), for outdoor regulatory testing in India.
The major impediment to government’s plan of implementing Star Ratings, was the unavailability of adequate NABL accredited testing infrastructure in India.
NABL has now given the certificate of accreditation to Apollo Tyres Test Centre for ‘General Requirements for the Competence of Testing and Calibration Laboratories’ extended with the track tests of wet grip and coast-by noise for C1, C2 and C3 categories of tyres which are covered under the labelling programme.
