ASTM D903 - Standard test method for peel or stripping strength of adhesive bonds
In short
ASTM D903 - Standard test method for peel or stripping strength of adhesive bonds. Amstelfy's laboratory in Amstelveen performs this ASTM method for adhesive bonds and tapes: peel/stripping strength. Testing is on the ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation scope NAC-037-TL, which lets European manufacturers prepare US evaluation-report programmes without shipping samples overseas.
What we assess
- peel/stripping strength
Products covered
- adhesive bonds
- tapes

Route to market
US and international evaluation-report programmes (ICC-ES, IAPMO UES, ACI 318 qualification) accept data from ISO/IEC 17025-accredited laboratories. Amstelfy runs these programmes in the Netherlands so European manufacturers avoid shipping samples overseas; the evaluation report itself is issued by the evaluation service.
