We specialise in testing products in the environment in which they will be expected to operate, to ensure they will perform as expected and to confirm assumptions made during the design process. In addition to performing tests, we can offer advice to help create an appropriate environmental test programme for equipment and to help design equipment to survive its operating environment.
 
We have the capability to handle a wide range of products from individual electronic components to large systems.  We support research and development programmes, design and verification testing, qualification programmes, environmental stress screening, testing of items throughout production and reliability growth programmes.
 
We have the reputation and expertise to deliver your requirements cost effectively to the highest quality.


 
Capability
All products, whether domestic, industrial or military are influenced by the environment in which they operate. Although sophisticated analysis techniques help ensure that designs are suitably robust many assumptions require to be made and it is essential to underwrite these by appropriate testing.
We have the capability to conduct environmental tests to national and international standards and are a UKAS accredited test house.
 
Environment
The Environmental Engineering Centre of Excellence specialises in testing products in the environment in which they will be expected to operate, to ensure they will perform as expected and to confirm assumptions made during the design process.
We offer a comprehensive range of facilities which can simulate natural and man made environments in which performance can be evaluated. The facilities are summarised in the relevant pages of the UKAS website. Details of our full UKAS accreditation schedule are available at www.UKAS.co.uk
 
Experience

We have over 30 years of experience in environmental and EMC testing and are accredited by UKAS  as a test house. Should your equipment not meet all the requirements first time, we have the experience and the skills to help solve the problem quickly. We can also assist with the generation of test plans/procedures etc and can offer advice on interpretation of many unknown standards.

We support research and development programmes, design and verification testing, qualification programmes, environmental stress screening, testing of items throughout production and reliability growth programmes.
We are also capable of creating special tests, which are not covered by our UKAS accreditation, although if we do so, we cannot certify under our accreditation.
