KOTITI established in 1961 as the first internationally accredited testing and inspection institute for textile products in Korea, has led the development of the domestic textile industry since its founding.

Based on the latest facilities, professional personnel, and accumulated technical expertise, KOTITI strives to provide specialized technical information services and offers a variety of services through its global network.

Main Tests

General Quality Testing
Tests to ensure and verify product quality for consumers by quantitatively and qualitatively analyzing the physical and chemical properties of textile products, such as weight, strength, and colorfastness.
Harmful Substance Testing
With the increasing use of chemicals, regulations on harmful substances that threaten the environment and human health have been strengthened. KOTITI provides related testing and analysis services based on its skilled professionals and advanced equipment.
Functional Testing
As leisure activities increase, functional testing of outdoor products—such as moisture absorption and quick-drying, thermal insulation, water/air permeability, and microbiological tests(antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral activity)—is conducted. KOTITI provides information and testing services to verify the functional properties and quality of products.
