What is the goal of medical device testing?
The primary objectives of tests for the medical sector are patient safety, quality assurance, product safety and compliance with the requirements of the MDR (Medical Device Regulation - EU Medical Device Regulation) and thus its marketability. According to international regulations, the packaging of your sterile and non-sterile medical device should protect your device from damage, contamination and possible loss of sterility.
By selecting suitable standards for packaging tests and medical device tests, you can identify potential weaknesses preventively or analyze them afterwards. Medical device testing is essential to ensure that products are reliable and safe for patients and users and do not pose any risks. The tests support the design and development of medical devices and their packaging. For approvals, such as CE marking, these tests are indispensable.

How is the appropriate test method selected?
The appropriate test method is always determined by our customers’ requirements: You specify the standardized test method and the standards according to which we test your product.
For the approval of your products, we offer accredited services in the area of packaging validation including process, transport, and shelf-life validation. As a certified test laboratory of the ISTA (International Safe Transit Association), we are also pleased to assist you with our expertise in this regard. Naturally, we also perform various physical-mechanical tests on the medical device itself.
