SATRA Test Equipment and Laboratory Accreditation
The SATRA Accredited Laboratory programme is now recognised throughout the footwear and leathergoods industries worldwide and plays its part as a stamp of quality authority between parties doing business together down the supply chain and out to retail and consumer.
Every SATRA Accredited Laboratory is an independent provider of testing services in accordance with the SATRA standard but not a part of the SATRA Group of companies. Many laboratories are in-house operations set up and managed by product brands and their supply manufacturers.
Test methods and standards are the key to ensuring product performance is measured accurately and consistently. Without them, testing is meaningless.
SATRA test engineering
All SATRA test machines benefit from SATRA technical expertise from start to finish and are trialled first in SATRA laboratories. This gives our customers a supply chain advantage as the SATRA name is recognised, respected and valued in more than 70 countries.
SATRA test consumables
The consumables used in testing can greatly affect the results. Ensuring reliable, accurate and repeatable testing relies on many factors, not least the quality of any reference materials or consumables associated with the test method.

The SATRA slip resistance tester has been developed following extensive biomechanical studies and is representative of conditions encountered during walking when slip is most likely to occur.
