Expanded Accreditation

Our Certified Testing Standards

At QED LAB, we are committed to upholding the highest standards of quality and precision through our AAMA, ASTM, and ABAA accredited testing methods. These standards allow us to conduct evaluations for air infiltration, water penetration, and structural integrity, ensuring that fenestration products and building enclosures meet or exceed industry performance requirements. Our expertise in both AAMA and ASTM testing ensures accurate, reliable results that help our clients achieve compliance with building codes, while our ABAA certification supports our focus on high-performance air barrier systems. With these rigorous testing protocols in place, we help ensure that your windows, doors, and building components will deliver long-term durability, energy efficiency, and performance in any construction project.
