National
Technical Systems, Inc. (“NTS”), the leader in qualification
testing, inspection, and certification solutions in North America, is
pleased to announce that its laboratory in Longmont, Colorado, achieved
ISTA Laboratory Certification. The certification ensures packages
undergo rigorous testing to protect against shock, vibration, and
atmospheric hazards.
“The ISTA certification is a testament to NTS’s commitment to
maintaining the highest standards for packaging testing,” said Michael
Graham, General Manager at NTS Longmont. The Longmont facility joins
several NTS locations, including NTS
Chicago, NTS
Orlando, NTS
Silicon Valley, and NTS
Boxborough, as robust laboratories with ISTA Certification.
The ISTA Laboratory Certification is important for conducting tests that
reduce the risk of package damage and eliminating trial and error
shipping practices. “We’re excited to use NTS to ensure the integrity of
our packages,” said Drea Michaelis of Preferred Packaging Products, a
new NTS customer. “Using a trusted name like NTS provides assurance that
our packages will reach end users in good shape.” With 28 labs in North
America, including several ISTA certified locations, NTS provides
customers with a one-stop shop for advanced product and package testing
services. Michael Graham embraces the new addition to his
state-of-the-art laboratory. “We continue to enhance the ways we help
our customers—and obtaining ISTA certification for product package
testing is another step in offering the most comprehensive testing
platform in the United States.”
