Accelerated Ageing Testing

We provide world-class Accelerated Ageing Testing and Real Time Ageing services to ensure the longevity, safety, and compliance of your medical devices, pharmaceuticals, and packaging. Leveraging advanced environmental chambers at our UKAS accredited facility, our experts simulate the real-world effects of time on products and in the case of accelerated ageing it can be done in a fraction of the time, allowing you to confidently predict product performance and durability.

What is Accelerated Ageing Testing?

Accelerated ageing testing is a critical process for determining how products withstand time and environmental factors, such as temperature, humidity, and UV exposure. By simulating prolonged storage conditions in controlled environments, this testing method provides insights into potential failures, degradation, and shelf-life expectancy.

What is Real Time Ageing?

Real time ageing is a process used to evaluate how a product (medical device, pharmaceutical or packaging) performs over time under normal storage conditions. This is generally performed in conjunction with accelerated ageing.
