Audio, Video and Household Appliances

As technological innovation gathers pace, consumer expectations of household appliances and audio and video products grow. People want safety, reliability and efficiency from their products, but they also want high performance, whether they are buying a necessity – such as a washing machine or oven – or a sound system that they feel complements their lifestyle. 

Although product development may be slower in the household and audio and video industries, it is still imperative for businesses to get products to market as quickly and safely as possible, to ensure the underlying technology is up to date and compliant with the latest regulations.

SGS supports manufacturers, distributors and retailers in these industries right through the production and supply chains, from the product design stage through to shipment. We can tailor our services to meet your specific needs – from offering a comprehensive production strategy, through certification to meet industry standards, or one-off tests to support quality control or risk assessment processes.
