The primary focus of GTL is testing and certification of construction materials particularly those used in building roads and weather resistant envelopes for structures such as roofs, exterior walls and foundation coatings and coverings. A secondary focus is on the cooperative development of products or methods of production for clients who want assistance in research and development activities.
GTL is staffed with considerable technical talent that has experience related to both testing and R&D activities and is accredited through American Association of Laboratory Accreditation (A2LA).
