Climatic Testing Facts

Climatic testing provides manufacturers with an accurate understanding of how their products will perform in diverse and extreme environments. 

Besides the main climatic tests (temperature & humidity, corrosive atmosphere, and sand & dust), climatic testing also includes wind & rain, hail impact, solar radiation, and altitude.

Climatic testing is crucial in assessing the operational, transport, and storage durability of products. By simulating real-world conditions, we help ensure that your product is ready to withstand the challenges it may face in the field, no matter the environment.
