Trade-Related Health & Sanitary Testing
In the realm of government and trade facilitation testing, health and sanitary testing stands out as a critical component that ensures compliance with international standards and regulations. This service is pivotal for products entering or exiting global markets to ensure they meet stringent safety, quality, and public health criteria set by various governmental bodies.
Health and sanitary tests are designed to address concerns related to the safety of food, agricultural products, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, medical devices, and other goods that directly impact human well-being. These tests aim to prevent potential risks such as contamination, harmful substances, or diseases from affecting public health.
The scope of trade-related health and sanitary testing includes a wide range of activities that ensure the safety and quality of products before they are allowed into the market. This involves rigorous inspection, sampling, analysis, and certification processes designed to meet international standards such as ISO 14971 for medical devices, ICH Q7 for pharmaceuticals, and OIE (World Organization for Animal Health) guidelines for agricultural products.
