About Chemical Safety Testing

DEKRA offers a wide range of chemical testing services across a number of different markets, with our chemical testing specialists ensuring that all users of our customers products are not exposed to any chemical safety risks.
Chemicals in products may be naturally present in raw materials or may have been added to create specific characteristics. The use of different chemicals in product manufacturing is a heavily regulated area. DEKRA’s chemical testing experts test the chemical aspects of a product and any applicable conditions under which these could pose a threat to users.
Chemical tests are also necessary to identify different chemical components within different materials, helping to identify any potential risks or hazardous substances within products, and also resistance to chemical agents. Tests are also used to help manufacturers accurately list all the components used to manufacture products, in order for the vendor to accurately declare this in any marketing material about the product.
