About Us

DANGEROUS GOODS PACKAGING TESTING

The Australian Compliance Laboratory is a NATA accredited mechanical test laboratory to the standards of ISO 17025. The scope of its accreditation includes packaging testing to:

1. the Australian Code for the transport of dangerous goods by road and rail and
2. the United Nations Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods.

Run by qualified engineers

Our lab is run by qualified engineers who are experience and well trained in packaging testing. This ensures that you avoid the packaging compliance landmines, you meet your compliance obligations and can do so without stress in the job.

Custom testing

Our laboratory is your laboratory. We take on your custom 'myth-busting' jobs and deliver the results you need.
By consulting our engineers, you can use the lab to determine nearly anything — from how much weight a park bench can hold to impact analysis of a pallet falling off a truck. Ask us if we can help and we'll get back to you as soon as we can.
