Specialist fire testing provider, Exova Warringtonfire, has more than doubled capacity at its Ghent laboratory in response to increased customer demand.
The €150,000 investment has seen its modular building facility expand from 300m² to 750m², creating more space for preparation of wall and floor test specimens and more room for storage of materials and prepared specimens.
The additional space also allows for a reduction in testing lead times, and increased confidentiality, offering an extended and improved service to customers.
Bart Sette, General Manager for Exova Warringtonfire Ghent commented: “The expansion of our modular building facility demonstrates Exova Warringtonfire’s continued commitment to meeting the needs of our growing number of customers. As a result of this investment we will be able to provide enhanced levels of service, including improved turnaround times and additional high quality preparation facilities”.
Exova Warringtonfire, Ghent is accredited according to NBN EN ISO / IEC 17025 and performs tests on construction products and materials used in transport (train, tram, bus, aeroplane, car, shipbuilding and off-shore industry).
