Engineering Testing Services

ISI conduct an expansive range of engineering testing services, meeting the requirements of Health and Safety legislation for statutory and non-statutory plant.

There is often a requirement to carry out testing to physically prove the strength, suitability, or mechanical properties of an item of plant or machinery. For example:

  • On completion of the manufacturing process
  • At installation
  • At periodic intervals once in use
