The CORESTA Physical Test Methods (PTM) Sub-Group organises a nominally annual series of round robin tests that is open to the member laboratories that have a calibration laboratory to compare their capability to calibrate standards used in physical test instrumentation. This testing provides a baseline of air permeability instrument performance across the industry and each laboratory is also able to use the result set in internal and external audit assessments.

This report covers the results of the third round robin test on air permeability (AP) standards conducted between January 2014 and November 2015.
