About AATCC



AATCC

AATCC is the world’s leading not-for-profit association serving textile professionals since 1921. AATCC is headquartered in Research Triangle Park, N.C., USA, providing test method development, quality control materials, and professional networking for thousands of members in 60 countries throughout the world.
These goals are achieved through the activities of our three interest groups - Chemical Applications, Concept 2 Consumer®, and Materials - by our Committee and Section activities, and through our award-winning magazine and peer-reviewed journal,AATCC Review.

ASTM International

Textile Standards ASTM International is one of the largest voluntary standards development organizations in the world-a trusted source for technical standards for materials, products, systems, and services. Known for their high technical quality and market relevancy, ASTM International standards have an important role in the information infrastructure that guides design, manufacturing and trade in the global economy. Committee D13 ASTM Committee D13 on Textiles was formed in 1914. D13 meets twice a year, in January and June, with approximately 100 members attending three days of technical meetings. The Committee has 535 members and currently has jurisdiction of 339 standards, published in the Annual Book of ASTM Standards, Volumes 7.01 and 7.02.

About Me

My photo
Madras, India
A textile technologist, chemist to be more precise. Have taken up responsibilities with AATCC and ASTM International to provide technical and support services to members and member prospects. Involved in QA systems implementation for Textile producers. Work with some of the top rated technicians in the world. We are Rated very highly Globally. I share my knowledge and experience ( Episteme and Techne)with the industry. Conduct Training programs for AATCC and ASTM Intl. In addition design and deliver tailor made programs and deliver lectures. Love to drive in search of desolate and exotic locations, where the air is clean , water in pure and nature is still natural. Ironically I Love gadgets and gizmo's and experimenting with new hardware and software. Life is not perfect , but it is interesting. Imperfections make life worth living. A perfect system is no challenge to the body , mind and soul.
