GESTER Conducts Quality Testing of Athletes' Equipment for the Paris Olympics

During the globally watched Olympics, athletes rely not only on their efforts and training but also on high-quality equipment to ensure their performance on the field. As core parts of an athlete's gear, the quality of clothing and footwear directly impacts their performance. GESTER testing equipment has played a significant role in ensuring the quality of this gear.

I. Clothing Quality Testing

Abrasion Test
Athletes' clothing needs to withstand high-intensity friction during competitions and training. For instance, GESTER's Martindale Abrasion and Pilling Tester GT-C13B can simulate the wear conditions of actual use. By accurately measuring the abrasion resistance of clothing fabrics, it ensures that athletes' clothing remains intact and comfortable even after prolonged use.

Air Permeability Test
Air permeability is a crucial indicator for sportswear. GESTER's Automatic Air Permeability Tester GT-C27 measures the air permeability of fabrics, ensuring that the clothing can effectively wick away sweat during intense exercise, keeping the athletes dry and comfortable, and preventing discomfort from sweat retention.

Tensile and Tear Strength Test
In intense sports, clothing needs to withstand stretching and tearing pressures. GESTER's Universal Tensile Strength Tester can simulate the stress conditions of actual use, ensuring that the strength and toughness of the clothing meet the athletes' needs, preventing performance issues due to clothing damage during competitions.

II. Footwear Quality Testing

Abrasion and Durability Test
The abrasion resistance of shoe soles directly affects athletes' running and jumping performance. GESTER's Taber Abrasion Tester GT-C14 is used to determine the material's abrasion resistance and evaluate its wear degree by measuring its mass loss, thickness loss, and transmittance.

Footwear Universal Test
The Universal Testing Machine for Footwear can conduct various performance tests on footwear products, including tensile, compression, bending, shear, bonding strength, peel, and tear tests. These tests ensure the stability and reliability of footwear products in different environments, providing comprehensive protection for athletes.

III. Professional Technology

GESTER testing equipment not only plays a role during the Olympics but also provides strong quality assurance for manufacturers in the daily production of sports equipment. Through advanced testing technology and equipment, GESTER helps manufacturers identify and solve potential issues in product design, material selection, and production processes, improving product quality and ensuring that every piece of sports equipment meets international standards.

The Olympics is not only a grand event for sports competition but also a platform for showcasing technology and quality. GESTER testing equipment, with its precise, efficient, and reliable performance, plays an important role in ensuring the quality of athletes' clothing and footwear. Through rigorous testing processes and high-standard quality control, GESTER provides strong equipment assurance for athletes, helping them perform at their best on the field.

In the future, GESTER will continue to uphold the philosophy of technological innovation and quality first, continuously enhancing testing technology and equipment levels, and contributing more to the development of global sports.
