Lab Resources

In 2016 Performance Additives established a technical lab in Johnson City, Tennessee. The labs main purpose is to:

  • Compile trial data
  • Develop new products
  • Test final products
  • Track quality control

We welcome and encourage our customers to visit not only our lab in Tennessee, but also the labs and production facilities at our partners in China.

Additionally, we want to be your go to supplier when looking at new product development and encourage you to reach out to us for formulation ideas and the use of our lab equipment. If you have some quality or product development issues you are trying to solve, Performance Additives can brainstorm and implement testing to help you to find the best path forward. Please take a moment to review the resources available both globally and here in the United States.
