Globalization & Concerns over Product Quality & Safety Drive Growth in the Testing Laboratories Market, According to a New Report by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.
San Jose, California (PRWEB) April 02, 2015 -- Follow us on LinkedIn – Testing Laboratories comprise establishments, both independent and those operating as part of a corporate entity, to offer a wide range of chemical, physical and analytical testing services. Over the years, testing laboratories have gained huge significance, driven by the benefits offered to businesses clients. While existing laboratories are expanding their service offerings, new laboratories are being established to meet the growing demand for these services. Stringent regulations such as REACH, GHS (Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals), the EU Energy Using Products directive, are spurring demand for third-party testing services. Development of advanced testing technologies, uncompromising focus on product quality and safety, rising demand for a wide range of consumer products, globalization in sourcing and distribution, and significant diversity of products are providing substantial impetus to product testing and certification services. The development of increasingly advanced products and growing complexity of supply chains are also enhancing the significance of testing laboratories.
Food testing laboratories are one of the most common types of testing laboratories. Increasing food production, tightening regulations, standardization of food safety regulations and continuing shift in technology towards more expensive rapid tests are driving increased demand for food safety testing. Non-Destructive Test (NDT) services are finding increased demand across a wide range of end-use markets, owing to the need to adhere to stringent product usage specifications and tight quality control measures governing industry operations. In the automotive industry, testing approaches that assist manufacturers in component validation are expected to receive a boost. Apart from testing for safety, performance and quality assurance, advanced testing methods allow auto makers to evaluate the quality of components produced.
