- California Materials Laboratory for comparison testing of product vs. competitor product: compression testing (on an Instron machine) to determine the force at which the product breaks. We were hoping to perform this testing on a sample size of 10 for each type of product, and we hope to be present in the lab during the testing. In addition, we want to inquire about other test equipment (measuring tools, drop tip indicator, etc.) as we aim to perform durometer and roundness tests
