Characterisation & Performance Measurement Platform


CETI’s Characterisation & Performance Measurement platform provides industrial players with comprehensive capabilities to evaluate, validate and optimise the properties and performance of textile materials and products.

Textile characterisation testing
Fully integrated with CETI’s development and pilot platforms, this platform supports applied R&D, prototyping and pre-industrial production by enabling accurate and relevant performance assessment under representative conditions.

Designed to support industrial decision-making, the platform plays a key role in securing product development and accelerating time to market.

Applications & industrial use cases

The Characterisation & Performance Measurement platform supports a wide range of industrial development and validation activities.


Characterisation of fibers, yarns, nonwovens and textile products


Performance evaluation of prototypes and pre-series products


Validation of technical textiles for demanding applications


Comparison and qualification of materials, formulations or process variants


Support for process optimisation through performance-driven feedback


Preparation of technical data to support industrialisation and market launch

How CETI uses this platform


CETI uses this platform throughout experimental and pilot test campaigns to characterise material properties and product performance in real time.

This approach enables rapid adjustment of process parameters and material compositions based on measured results.

The platform supports iterative development loops, reducing development time and technical risk.

Activities are conducted by expert teams combining know-how in materials, textile processes and performance evaluation.

The platform supports integrated technical services within CETI’s service offerings.

Looking to develop, validate or scale up a textile solution? CETI teams are available to discuss your project and identify the most relevant technical approach.

Characterisation &
performance measurement capabilities


The Characterisation & Performance Measurement platform enables comprehensive evaluation of textile materials and products, from raw materials to finished structures.

It supports:

  • Measurement of physical, mechanical and functional properties

  • Evaluation of performance relevant to end-use conditions

  • Comparative testing of prototypes and material variants

  • Qualification of products developed on CETI’s pilot platforms for demanding applications such as filtration, insulation and functional materials, where performance is critical

  • Generation of robust technical data to support industrial validation

These capabilities are applied across a wide range of materials, including synthetic, natural, recycled and bio-based solutions.
