The need for scientific testing data.
Foxfire uses ASTM standards to guarantee all of our products are quality tested and shipped to the end-user free from defects, performance ready, and environmentally safe. Our need for an international testing standard ensures we are backing up performance with products that exceed expectations when applied to prepared surfaces on the job.
