Environmental testing

Environmental testing through BSI can take your products to their operating limits to see how they will perform once exposed to real life functional extremes.

BSI Product Services provides comprehensive independent environmental testing services to industry, individually tailoring client’s environmental requirements to assist product development and verification programmes. BSI can perform confidence testing or full qualification approval on manufactured products ranging from single components to full systems. This testing supplies results that will provide your product with the competitive edge.

Typical environmental tests include:

  • Vibration
  • Climatic cycling
  • Thermal shock
  • Mechanical shock
  • Corrosion
  • Solar exposure
  • IP - Weather and dust

All products whether industrial, domestic or military are susceptible to stress inflicted on them by the environment in which they operate. Before placement on the market it is essential you know how your products will perform under these conditions. Field failures and product recalls can have a devastating effect on new product launches.

We can evaluate prototypes, reducing the risk of field failures when the product is launched. We can stimulate the conditions of the product usage and transportation, plus we can provide advice on failure trend analysis to aid product refinement.

Environmental testing can also be included as part of product compliance testing for Kitemark® and CE marking.
