Areas of expertise
The CÉRIC laboratory has 30 years of experience under its belt, and is the leading European laboratory when it comes to chimneys and sustainable energy.
It’s the only laboratory that develops, tests and approves every aspect of combustion (including fuels, pipes and equipment) through its three main areas of activity:
Applied research
Product development
Quality control
The results of these tests are used to feed in to French and European standardisation work, as well as professional training programmes in partnership with the AGECIC.
In the years to come, the CÉRIC will continue to invest in order to extend its research and development resources in the fields of energy efficiency, safety and renewable energy.
EQUIPEMENTS
The CÉRIC laboratory covers 550m² and boasts cutting-edge facilities unlike anywhere else in Europe.
The 6 test areas of the laboratory are suitable for a broad range of mechanical, chemical and thermal tests: wind tunnel tests, air tightness tests, flexibility tests, tests for resistance to condensation and rain water, dimensional tests and studies looking at combining combustion solutions with smoke removal systems.
Test benches are also installed outside, as well as a test platform for photovoltaic systems.
The CELSIUS heating system completes the range and is used to test medium and high power products.
