SGS Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) Services

Non-destructive testing (http://www.sgs.com/en/Industrial-Manufacturing/Services-Related-to-Production-and-Products/Materials-Testing/Non-Destructive-Testing.aspx) provides the most effective testing methods for components, materials and systems used to ensure compliance, identify defects and increase the lifespan of assets. Since NDT does not detrimentally affect any object under inspection, it is a valuable technique which not only saves both time and money during the quality and safety evaluation procedure, but raises confidence in component integrity. In order to ensure reliable inspection, suitable-trained and qualified NDT personnel equipped with state-of-the-art equipment and necessary skills are essential to the industry.
