Quality Control
To ensure quality control and assurance, all blending is controlled under ISO 9002 standards. Each individual batch of Add Pak is then rigorously tested for conformance with product and industry specifications prior to storage, packaging, or shipment. This laboratory analysis is thoroughly conducted by both Additives Inc. and SouthWest Engineers. A Certificate of Analysis for each lot is produced and available to customers.

Technical Support
It is always necessary to confirm that your products meet the required specifications. Additives Inc.’s laboratory and chemists are available to test any antifreeze products containing Additives Inc.’s Add Pak as a complimentary service. In this way, Additives Inc. can help you to establish or confirm your quality control and assurance program. However, we will not warrant any Additives Inc. product if the blending procedure is not properly followed and/or if the glycol being used contains impurities that do not allow the final product to meet the minimum ASTM standards.

Guarantee - Warranty
Additives Inc. will only warranty our products if instructions and outlined procedures are followed. We will not warranty the Add Paks if the depleted antifreeze that is being recycled contains impurities that do not allow the recycled antifreeze to meet minimum ASTM standards. It is always necessary to confirm that your product meets the required specifications using the ASTM recognized tests and standards. Should you have a problem meeting your required specifications, Additives Inc. technical personnel will test your reprocessed and reconstituted antifreeze, while you establish use levels of our products.
