Environmental Testing
Environmental Testing Expertise
Our expertise in environmental testing allows us to simulate conditions that will provide detailed knowledge on how the product will operate and survive in its final environment. We test and validate the performance of components, assemblies and systems under a range of environmental conditions experienced by products from a range of industries including aerospace, automotive and rail. Our environmental testing capabilities include;
- Climatics testing
- Vibration testing
- Ingress protection (dust, water)
For more information about environmental testing, our UKAS accredited testing laboratory No. 0332, or any of the facilities, please contact us.
