Supplier of auto accessories and private labelling manufacturer, Simply Brands, commissioned an independent test for its recently launched wiper blade range – and passed with flying colours. The independent testing was conducted in the USA at ARDL, a renowned ISO accredited rubber mixing and testing facility used by leading brands and original equipment (OE) manufacturers. Testing was done under OE-standard (SAE J 903 C) conditions and, as well as testing initial wipe quality, the wipers were put through a 500,000 wipe cycle durability test to ensure their lifespan. Completing the testing for the flat blades was a wind-lift test, which showed a remarkable result of zero wind lift even at speeds of 100mph.
