(PRWEB) June 1, 2006 -- Salts Healthcare, a leading manufacturer of ostomy and wound care hydrocolloid products has chosen a Mecmesin MultiTest 1-i computer-controlled test frame system, driven by Emperor™ software, for conducting quality testing on their hydrocolloid products.

Salts Healthcare chose the MultiTest 1-i because of its accuracy at low loads, ease-of-use and adaptability. They use the MultiTest 1-i to conduct quality tests on their hydrocolloid products. Tack testing tests the adhesive qualities of hydrocolloids, ensuring that the hydrocolloid products adhere adequately to the skin.

“The MultiTest 1-i has been purchased to test the physical properties of raw materials and finished products. The 10N loadcell is able to measure to two decimal places, which gives a very sensitive and accurate reading, and this test works very well. The MultiTest 1-i meets our needs and with time has proved user friendly,” said A Jamesova, Salts Healthcare.
