This new holistic approach has been developed in response to the increased pace of change, global connectivity and e-commerce. It aims to ensure E&E manufacturers and brands can access specialist support at every stage of a product’s life cycle from design to store shelf and end-of-life disposal.
Whether seeking enhanced product performance, improved product quality, reduced failure rates or a more positive customer experience, SGS’s Total Solution Services deliver customised plans to resolve multiple challenges. Customers will benefit from SGS’s global network of local teams offering expertise in the fields of Performance and Reliability, Regulation, Compliance and Safety.

Our comprehensive approach, embracing the full gamut of testing, inspection and certification services, will support manufacturers and boost brands while improving access to new and existing markets.
“The service supports the flow of safe, accessible, high-quality E&E products to ensure secure connectivity, reduced risk, and increased consumer trust. In the end it’s only trusted because it’s tested.”
