Atmus Filtration Technologies Inc. opened a new state-of-the-art laboratory facility in Quimper, France, to reinforce its global testing capabilities & reduce customer lead times.

The Quimper laboratory holds IATF 16949 & ISO 17025 certifications, conducts over 5,000 filter tests annually, & supports both liquid & air/aerosol applications.
As part of the "One Global Lab" network alongside sites in India, China, Tennessee, & Wisconsin, the facility reduces inter-site shipping & carbon impacts.
