About Test Lab Solutions

An independent lab that tells you whether your packaging holds. And how much packaging is enough.

Header Test Lab Solutions about us
  • ISTA Certified Testing Laboratory
  • Independent of packaging suppliers
  • Your own engineer, start to finish

Why does an independent lab matter to you?

Because the only thing we sell is the test. Test Lab Solutions is an independent test laboratory in Eindhoven, the Netherlands. We don't design, make or sell packaging.

So a lighter pack or a different supplier makes no difference to us. You get the result as it is, also when the answer is "this packaging is more than you need".

 

Term explained

An independent test lab has no stake in the product or packaging it tests. It doesn't sell the design, the material or the supplier. Its report shows what happened during the test, nothing more.
