Testing Capabilities

Item has heavily invested in people, plant and equipment to increase its testing capabilities. In 2005, the QE Laboratory more than doubled its capacity, moving to new, purpose-designed facilities; at the same time, the actual testing capabilities have been enhanced by the acquisition of additional test equipment, which provides Item with the in-house capability to provide testing which had previously been performed by outside vendors. These moves have resulted in more rapid and cost-effective test reports being made available to internal and external customers.
