What is Product Safety Testing?

Product safety testing evaluates electrical and electronic products against established international standards to protect users from hazards — including electric shock, fire, mechanical injury, excessive heat, radiation, and chemical exposure. Safety certification is mandatory for most global markets and is a prerequisite for CE marking under the Low Voltage Directive (LVD 2014/35/EU), FDA clearance, and other regulatory approvals.

Our engineers test to the full range of IEC safety standards, issuing accredited test reports that form the technical basis of your Declaration of Conformity, Technical Construction File, or regulatory submission.

💡 Pre-compliance testing available: Bring your prototype early. Our engineers can identify safety gaps before a formal submission, saving time and re-test fees.
