Building materials are exposed to climatic changes and severe wear and tear, which may become potential health and environmental hazards. Products used in constructing buildings must be tested to ensure safety, stability and durability. Strict standards governing construction and building products covering areas such as structural stability, structural safety and fire protection of buildings have to be complied with.
TÜV SÜD PSB has more than 30 years of experience in this field and is able to conduct a wide range of industry tests and evaluation to determine the performance of building products used locally or overseas.
