I would unconditionally recommend 4ward Testing for swift professional and informative testing based on past experiences with other testing institutes I have used. They are league leaders in my opinion, no red tape, no complicated administrative system, just plain and simple excellent customer service.
General Manager C-TEC NI Ltd
4ward Testing performed an excellent testing service during COVID-19, we found the approach of this organisation to be truly responsive and meeting the challenging time frame that was placed on it. We certainly will look to maintain a regular activity with this much needed company. We must add that unlike many other companies in the 4ward Testing sector, this company provided a competitive pricing service that delivered on time and against contractual terms.
We had a requirement to test a sample of a large stock of face masks, to ensure their suitability for use by those supporting the response to the “COVID pandemic”. 4ward Testing were recommended to us and they delivered their report well within the agreed timescale. I was impressed with their recognition of the urgency this work required and communications with Polly & Anthony were excellent so I would have no hesitation in using their services again, or in recommending them to others!
4ward Testing have worked closely with Canusa and our client on all aspects of the work undertaken. Their wide experience, coupled with an in-depth knowledge of international specifications and standards, has helped speed the testing process considerably and their professional, authoritative and confident testing skills have allowed us to arrange witnessed tests, giving our clients even greater assurance of true independence – tangible benefits of the 4ward Testing philosophy of intelligent testing. We would have no hesitation in recommending 4ward Testing, as they have proven to be a modern, professional an progressive testing laboratory with a refreshing mix of academic and practical skills so essential for today’s fast moving business environment.
The testing that 4ward carried out was of a high standard, met deadlines and targets that were necessary and we were kept involved with regular updates as the testing progressed. The support and guidance that 4ward offered to us as an individual company and via their input to BASA was greatly received and helped the industry increase it’s knowledge of what is still a confusing issue. I’m sure that that the issue of CE Marking will continue to evolve and encompass more products, but it is our intention to continue to use 4ward for our CE Marking requirements whether for new product development or where new Harmonized Standards emerge.
