Smithers adds ISO 19447 testing to scope of accreditation
Provider of testing services Smithers has announced that ISO 19447 testing has been added to its scope of accreditation. ISO 19447 outlines a method for measuring the relative ice grip performance of passenger car tires. The company conducts all its testing programs at the Smithers Winter Test Center (SWTC) in Brimley, Michigan.
The testing method is extremely similar to ECE R117 C1 Braking, which is pending approval in Europe. Both methods are part of the European Union’s new Ice Grip (Alpine) label.
