The Department of Science and Technology (DOST) acquired a new corrosion testing machine to ensure the durability, safety, and quality of metal furniture components to help boost local furniture manufacturers.

Corrosion testing guarantees that all metal parts of furniture, such as screws, bolts, nuts, frames, hinges, and fittings, meet the minimum requirement of international standards including ASTM B117, ISO 9227, and JIS Z 2371. This process ensures that furniture metal components are corrosion-resistant, long-lasting, and compliant with global quality benchmarks.
