Indentation Force Deflection (IFD) Testing per ASTM …
Indentation Force Deflection (IFD) tests measure firmness of flexible polyurethane foam cushions. High IFD test results imply increased hardness. Low IFD results indicate soft foam products.

IFD (previously ILD) is one test method to determine load bearing capacity (firmness or stiffness), and is expressed in pounds force per 50 in.2 at a given percent deflection of the foam. For …
Indentation force-deflection - Wikipedia
Indentation force-deflection is a process used in the flexible foam manufacturing industry to assess the "softness" of a sample of foam such as memory foam. To conduct an IFD test, a circular flat indenter with a surface area of 323 square centimeters (50 sq. inches - 8" in diameter) is pressed against a foam sample usually 100 mm thick and with an area of 500 mm by 500 mm (ASTM standard D3574). The foam sample is first placed on a flat table perforated with holes to a…
