Product Testing

Product testing measures a product's performance, safety, quality, and compliance with recognised standards.

Independence from any manufacturer, distributor, supplier or product marketer is the principal element which constitutes an objective comparative test.

The aim of product testing is to provide consumers with the correct information to show the capability of products and demonstrate which products provide the best value-for-money.

Providing Customer Protection

Product testing provides customer protection by analysing the marketing claims made in advertising and promotional materials and cross-referencing those with the test results.

Product testing might be carried out for a manufacturer or a consumer, importers, an independent laboratory or a Government agency such as Trading Standards.

The basis for testing is often an existing formal test method. Other test situations will require the specific development of test methods to suit a particular purpose. The comparative testing of similar products will subject several replicate samples to identical test conditions.
 

Some product testing services we have performed include:

  • Domestic products* 
  • Hand tools, tool bits*
  • Barbecues, fire guards*
  • Saddlery & equestrian products*
  • Medical & Bio medical equipment* e.g. Syringes 
  • Household products* e.g. Ironing board
  • Garden Products*
  • Cyclic testing* e.g. Door locks 
  • Grab rails* and various other load bearing items.
