MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY & HEALTHCARE

Our accredited laboratory offers a comprehensive range of medical device testing and analysis.

The fast-growing medical technology sector in particular, with its high proportion of research and development, is constantly bringing new products to market, some of them using new manufacturing processes.
Chemical analyses of medical devices are used to understand failure mechanisms as well as to identify and characterize the materials used in the manufacture of the devices.
They precede the toxicological risk assessment.
