New Laboratory and Analytic Services
Technical Consulting has always offered a high level of analytical services to our clients. We have been fortunate to have the resources of several High Tech laboratories to augment our own primary laboratory. In our recent move to Charlotte, North Carolina we discovered a hidden treasure in the form of the Textile Technology Center at Gaston College. North Carolina was a hotbed of the Textile industry for centuries before manufacturing turned offshore.

Many of the support services for manufacturing also shifted their services to accommodate the offshore onslaught, many sadly just closed up. The State of North Carolina, recognizing the value of this great lab, stepped in to fortify the fiscal responsibility. We are happy to say that Technical Consulting and the Textile Technology Center have developed a relationship and are now able to offer a level expertise unmatched anywhere in the US.
       
New Test Swatches
"The 'Genie' was used with great success throughout the industry for decades. Named and developed by the famed Gene Howard, it was perfect as a one-time wash cycle test. Gene has retired and production of the Genie has ceased. Demand has produced the new Technical Consulting's  "Test Master Swatch Test ©" The "Test Master Swatch Test ©"will not only test for Mechanical Action, Chlorine Bleach effectiveness, Alkali effectiveness, Detergency effectiveness, and Temperature, like the Genie, but you can order this test piece to fit your plant’s needs.

If you need to test for Hydrogen Peroxide, Blood Removal, or Shoe Polish removal, lipstick, oils, proteins, we can add the swatch that you need! The test piece will be tailored to fit your needs!  If you’re having a product quality problem, the "Test Master Swatch Test ©" will, in the matter of an hour, help to isolate the problem using an easy analysis guide. The "red flag version" of the "Test Master Swatch Test ©  can be returned to our lab for analysis when a report is required for OSHA, JCHCO or your hospital customers. The "Test Master Swatch Test ©"  is now available!
