LucideonStone, Staffordshire
Lucideon’s Stone site publishes materials testing, analysis, evaluation and characterisation capabilities from chemical and physical to high-temperature and surface analysis. The UKAS schedule retrieved for testing laboratory 0013, Issue 108 dated 5 February 2026, assigns ceramic floor and wall tile resistance to thermal shock and refractory thermal-expansion methods to the Stone location. The official contact page publishes the Stone address and a public enquiry route. Method and location scope should be confirmed for the proposed work.

Testing capabilities
Thermal-shock resistance of ceramic tiles
Page 6 of UKAS schedule 0013 assigns resistance to thermal shock for ceramic floor and wall tiles, using BS EN ISO 10545-9:2013, to location code Stone. Nearby modulus-of-rupture and frost-resistance entries are assigned to Stoke and are not transferred to this site.
Thermal expansion of refractory materials
Page 6 of the schedule assigns refractory thermal expansion from ambient to 1600 °C under BS 1902-5.14:1992 to Stone. It also lists thermal expansion under BS 1902-5.3:1990 at Stone without a range in that row.
Materials testing and characterisation at Stone
Lucideon’s current Stone site page describes chemical, physical, high-temperature and surface-analysis capabilities as part of its materials testing, analysis, evaluation and characterisation offering.
Equipment and published limits
| Specification | Published value | Conditions |
|---|---|---|
| Refractory thermal-expansion range | Ambient to 1600 °C | UKAS schedule page 6, BS 1902-5.14:1992, location Stone. This is the range for the listed refractory thermal-expansion method, not a general thermal-shock or site operating limit. |
| Ceramic-tile thermal-shock method | BS EN ISO 10545-9:2013 | Ceramic floor and wall tiles. UKAS schedule page 6 assigns this method to Stone. Chamber dimensions, cycles and operating limits were not verified. |

Standards and accreditation
- UKAS testing schedule 0013
- The directly retrieved UKAS schedule names Lucideon as accredited to ISO/IEC 17025:2017, Issue 108 dated 5 February 2026. Page 6 assigns ceramic-tile thermal-shock resistance under BS EN ISO 10545-9:2013 and the listed refractory thermal-expansion methods to Stone. The schedule supports these listed method and location allocations. Arc has not separately checked an active-register status, and accreditation is not extended to every service on the operator’s website.
What to confirm with the facility
- The schedule assigns ceramic-tile thermal-shock resistance to Stone, while the nearby modulus-of-rupture, frost-resistance and crazing-resistance entries are assigned to Stoke. Confirm the method-specific site allocation rather than treating the Stone address as covering every Lucideon test.
- The ambient-to-1600 °C range is published for refractory thermal expansion under BS 1902-5.14:1992 at Stone. It does not establish a thermal-shock chamber range, sample capacity or a general site limit.
- Confirm the applicable current schedule, material, method, sample preparation, dimensions, reporting requirements, availability, price and lead time directly before arranging work.
