Historical background
The Thermal Insulation Materials laboratory was accredited for the first time under the NMX-EC-IMNC (ISO / IEC17025) standard since 2003 at Polioles Lerma, in the State of Mexico, and in early 2019 it moved to the Styropek Altamira facilities, in Tamaulipas; thus continuing with the commitment to offer quality services and customer service.
This laboratory was the first nationwide to achieve accreditation under the NOM-018-ENER-2011 standard, and currently also provides analysis services under the NMX-C-463-ONNCCE-2010 and NMX-C-137-ONNCCE- 2010.
The laboratory places the testing services at your service under the following normative references:
