Fire testing
We perform over 300 fire tests annually. Our furnaces come in various sizes for different testing needs:
- Small furnaces (1200 x 1200mm) for material property tests.
- Medium furnaces (three frames of 1500 x 2000mm each) for simultaneous testing.
- Large furnaces for walls (3000 x 3000mm) and ceilings (3000 x 4000mm)
Our facilities also accommodate testing of specific applications like safety cabinets, fire dampers, and air ducts. We meet precise temperature curve requirements, including ISO-Curves, Hydrocarbon-Curves, R.W.S. fire curve, IMO testing, and more.

Fire door and damper testing
Watch our laboratory testing videos, featuring a compelling comparison between a 90-minute fire-resistant door, equipped with intumescent materials, and a low-grade fire-rated glass variant. Additionally, delve into the meticulous examination of fire dampers, showcasing Promats' commitment to ensuring material integrity for high-quality, life-saving solutions.
Acoustic testing

Acoustic testing
We have a full-scale laboratory to develop innovative solutions for acoustic comfort.
Our laboratories are based on the principle of a box within a box to overcome any lateral transmission. Partitions, floors, ceilings, or façades are analyzed experimentally regarding three types of performances: airborne sound transmission, impact noise reduction, and acoustic absorption.
Numerical acoustic modelling enables a deeper understanding of a system‘s acoustic behavior, reduces development time and more quickly identifies innovative systems.
Physical and mechanical testing
