Can you describe your experience with Benchmark International?

Segamat Panel Boards and Benchmark International have collaborated together on CARB grademark certification. We’ve enjoyed working with BMH since 2008, when it was PSI (Professional Services Industries). Our projects have included:

• Working on the application of registration codes for all CARB P2 production
• Conducting and reporting formaldehyde (FE) test results to produce certificates of compliance (CoCs) for CARB P2 customers
• Submitting qualification samples (for changes in the formulation of resin) and correlation samples (to correlate the internal desiccators test value via BMH’s large chamber test)
• Conducting site audits and providing training on proper sampling, testing and formaldehyde-reporting procedures
