Lab Testing Fabric Request Form

Incomplete submissions are the most common cause of delayed lab results and repeat charges. This template ensures complete submissions on the first attempt.

What's Inside

Lab Testing Fabric Request Form

This form covers every field a testing lab needs to process your sample without a follow-up call. US and international standard codes are listed side by side so brands shipping to multiple markets can specify both in one submission.

7 Test Categories with Standard Codes

Each test category lists the corresponding AATCC, ASTM, and ISO standard so your lab knows exactly which protocol to run — eliminating back-and-forth.

Colorfastness (laundering, light, crocking, perspiration)
Pilling and fuzzing resistance
Tensile strength and tear resistance
Dimensional stability (shrinkage)
Flammability (US: ASTM D1230, EU: EN ISO 15025)
Fiber content verification
Restricted substances (REACH, CA Prop 65)

Fabric Information Fields

Incomplete submissions are the most common cause of delayed results and repeat charges. This form captures everything the lab needs to process your sample correctly on the first submission.

Fiber content: 80% cotton / 20% polyester
Intended end use: activewear, childrenswear, outerwear
Colorway and Pantone reference
Supplier name and country of origin
Sample size received and sample ID
Brand contact and PO / style number

Colorfastness Sub-Options

Colorfastness is not a single test — it covers several different exposure conditions. This form breaks out each sub-test so you can select only what you need.

Laundering: AATCC 61 (accelerated) or ISO 105-C06
Light fastness: AATCC 16 or ISO 105-B02
Crocking (dry and wet): AATCC 8 or ISO 105-X12
Perspiration: AATCC 15 or ISO 105-E04
EU equivalents listed alongside US standards for export compliance

Pilling Cycle Selector

Different end uses require different pilling test durations. This form lets you select the right cycle rather than leaving it to the lab's default.

500 cycles: basic wear items (T-shirts, casual tops)
1,000 cycles: moderate-wear garments (knitwear, loungewear)
2,000 cycles: active and outdoor garments
5,000 cycles: performance and technical fabrics

Turnaround & Cost Table

A side-by-side comparison of standard and rush turnaround options so you can make the right call without a separate call with the lab.

Standard: 2–3 weeks from sample receipt
Rush: 1 week (typically 30–50% surcharge)
