V2 LAB: HARD AT WORK
At V² Lab, we take quality seriously. Our advanced in-house laboratory is equipped to perform 16 unique tests, ensuring every product we deliver exceeds industry standards. From Grab Tear to Color Grading, our testing guarantees materials that are durable, reliable, and tailored to your needs.
But we don’t stop there. V² Lab is also a hub for product development—a place where creativity meets engineering precision. Whether improving existing materials or creating new ones from the ground up, our team is driven by a passion for innovation. The result? Custom solutions that give you a competitive edge.
At V² Lab, we set the standard for performance in vinyl textiles across industries like athletics, industrial applications, and tensile architecture. Our advanced testing ensures durability, from puncture resistance in industrial covers to tear strength in structural membranes and abrasion resistance in specialty fabrics. When excellence is non-negotiable, our lab delivers materials built to perform under real-world demands.

UNIQUE TESTS
PERFORMED
GRAB TENSILE
We clamp the fabric at two points on the same edge and pull them in opposite directions. This creates focused stress—like uneven tension or shifting weight during real-world use—so we can see how well the material holds up where pressure hits hardest.
Tongue tear
We make a small cut to see how the material reacts under sudden stress—like a sharp edge or strong wind. This test shows how well the material resists tearing, so even if damage starts, it won’t spread and weaken the entire product.
PUNCTURE
By simulating real-world impacts, this test ensures that materials used in industrial, athletic, and tensile applications can withstand sharp forces without compromising durability or performance.
ABRASION
Simulates wear and friction to evaluate a material’s durability and resistance to surface damage. This test ensures vinyl products maintain their strength, performance, and appearance under real-world conditions
COLOR GRADING
Ensures vibrant, long-lasting colors that resist fading and discoloration, preserving both the material’s appearance and the clarity of any printed ink. This test guarantees consistent branding and extended product life, even under environmental stress.
ADHESION
Ensures strong bonding between layers and coatings to prevent peeling, cracking, or delamination. This critical test guarantees durability, environmental resistance, and long-term performance for vinyl products in demanding applications.
COMPLETE TESTING FOR FULL TEXTILE PERFORMANCE
From fire resistance to hydrostatic resistance, every test we perform is designed to push vinyl materials to their limits. From ensuring long-term durability to optimizing specific applications, each test guarantees our vinyl textiles meet the highest industry standards.
Explore how our rigorous evaluations ensure unmatched durability, reliability, and performance for every application.
The Products Behind the Tests
At V² Lab, we don’t just test products—we create them. From industrial tarps and athletic surfaces to tensile structures and specialty textiles, every product is engineered to withstand the toughest real-world conditions for that application or industry. Our testing ensures these materials deliver on strength, durability, and reliability.
