COLLISION AND INJURY DYNAMICS (CID)
LAUNCHES ACT LAB LLC (ACT)
Independent Laboratory Provides Compliance Testing for Bicycle and
Other Sports Industries
With the
increased adoption of compliance standards world-wide and the passing of America’s
new Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008, COLLISION AND
INJURY DYNAMICS, INC. (CID) announced the formation of ACT
LAB LLC (ACT), an independent, professional third-party product testing
group to provide unbiased product evaluation and research for the bicycle,
outdoor, team sports, motorcycle and other industries.
"The Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 is the most
comprehensive overhaul of consumer product safety laws since the creation
of the CPSC in 1972," states President and ACT founder John Bogler. "This
new law touches virtually all manufacturers, importers, distributors and retailers
of consumer products; and in the immediate, it mandates oversight and compliance
of the manufacturing of children’s products containing lead paint—to
include helmets, bicycles, and related accessories. Our goal is to work with
all bicycle manufacturers and related firms to ensure their products are in
compliance with all standards to reduce the possibilities of injuries, loss
of life, damage to property and business."
With its superior reputation of quality, experience, knowledge and excellence,
CID has founded ACT to provide mechanical and chemical testing services within
standards as:
• US DOT (Federally approved DOT helmet certified test laboratory—FVMSS)
• ASTM
• CPSC
• SFI
• ISO
• CEN
• Australian Standards Association
• Japanese Standards Institute
• American National Standards Institute
Other services offered by ACT are lead content testing of paint, surface coatings
and substrates to CPSC 16 CFR 1303, load testing, high-speed camera, design
review, specialized testing, reporting and data acquisition. ACT’s unbiased
product evaluation and research can find faults in designs and failures over
expected lifecycles, and has proven valuable in product design.
