Intertek relocates and expands quality and safety solutions in Makati, Philippines
20 Mar 2014
(Makati, Philippines) Intertek, a leading provider of quality and safety services to a wide range of industries around the world, has expanded its analytical, inspection, auditing and certification services to new premises in Makati.
In response to growing customer demands, Intertek Makati is now relocated in three-storey premises, occupying a combined area of over 2,900sq meters laboratory and office space.
Mr. Frank Pan, Chief Executive for Intertek South East Asia, said, “The relocation and expansion plan is part of our longer term strategy to offer customers an integrated quality solution with state-of-the-art technology complementing our professional local expertise in the Philippines.”
The new premises will offer testing solutions for softlines, toys, hardlines, textiles, garments, oil and petroleum products, environmental, food and water, agricultural commodities, cosmetics, packaging, Halal and more. Sustainable quality and compliance solutions are also offered through the audit and inspection teams in response to high market demands both locally and regionally.
The expanded facilities form part of Intertek’s extensive global network of laboratories and offices that can accommodate higher job volumes and reduce the turnaround time from sample receipt to testing, inspection, auditing and reporting locally. The improvement in service quality benefits our customers as it strengthens our culture of providing a complete customer-oriented experience.
Intertek scientists and professional staff have years of accumulated industry experience, supporting customer requests at different stages of the supply chain.
The laboratories and inspection activities are duly accredited to ISO/IEC 17025:2005 & ISO/IEC 17020:2004 standards by the Philippines Accreditation Office of the Department of Trade and Industry. Intertek certificates are also well recognized by local regulatory agencies. This further demonstrates the organisation’s technical competency as a testing laboratory in carrying out compliance product quality, safety and performance testing as well as the effectiveness of a laboratory facility to test for various products and commodities.
