Quick answer: Government/school modular-flooring tenders typically include 10-15 third-party test requirements, each requiring a stamped report. The 12 most common: hazardous volatiles, formaldehyde, Shore hardness, unnotched impact, SVHC, PP main component, environmental stress, no-calcite, antibacterial rate, xenon aging, hazard limits, sport performance. The key maker-filtering thresholds are 7000h xenon aging, no-calcite, and 99.9% antibacterial.

★14SCCP/MOCA/TDI+HDI/MDI per GB36246GB 36246
★15Ball rebound≥95%, absorption≥20%, odor≤3CNS performance

★ = substantive (disqualifying) clause.

Buyer Verification (3 steps)

  1. Credentials: CNAS + CMA, verifiable on lab site
  2. Model match: report model = tender model (certs are per-model)
  3. Validity: within 2 yrs, stamped, originals reviewable

AnchorCare Meets All 12

Zhejiang Jiunai tests per-model and meets all 12 (per model report covers). The toughest filters — 7000h xenon aging and no-calcite — eliminate most rebadge makers. See GB 36246 and full certifications.

FAQ

What do ★ clauses mean?

Substantive (disqualifying) clauses — failing one voids the bid.

Where do most makers fail?

Xenon aging 7000h (most do 1000-3000h) and no-calcite/low-calcium (most add calcium to cut cost).

What lab credentials are required?

Third-party + CNAS/CMA + model-matching + stamped. Buyer may review originals after award.

What is Shore D≤55?

A hardness scale; D≤55 requires surface softness for cushioning. AnchorCare tests D=53.

Is 99.9% antibacterial hard?

Needs a dedicated formula + SGS GB/T 31402 testing. AnchorCare's 3 bacteria all >99.9%.
