Companies interested in assessing the quality of their product need to conduct life cycle testing. As its name suggests, life cycle testing is designed to help companies understand, quantify, and communicate the impact that environmental factors have on their products during their entire lifespan. In addition to the environment’s impact on a product, life cycle testing also takes into account the sustainability and actual environmental impact (as seen through green initiatives) that the product will have in real world scenarios.
What are the Benefits?
It is no secret that many people make buying decisions based on a product’s environmental impact. As such, life cycle testing is designed to help provide quantitative data that will help companies make environmentally sound product decisions. ATS is proud to offer rigorous life cycle testing that is reliable, timely, and customizable. Through life cycle testing, companies can understand how the environment will impact their product.
