Test Report of Food Safe Laminated Steel:

No.Test ItemTest MethodTest Result
1Laminating Adhesion
  1. Making 11 parallel cuts that are 1mm apart on the surface and repeat the step at 90 degrees.
  2. Taping tightly the grid with 3M#610 Tape.
  3. Tear off the tape at a 90 degree angle.
3 times,without peeling-off
2Surface Hardness
  1. According to JIS K 5600/ASTM D3363,Put standard scaled pencil leads at 45 degree angle into the 750g pencil holder.
  2. Push the pencil holder away from yourself exerting enough force to scratch/mar the paint surface(proceed to a softer lead).Length of the strokes should be 10mm.
