Military/Defense Testing

We have provided test services for the defense industry for the past fifty years by continually investing in the equipment necessary to meet the demands of the newest specifications and technology to keep current in our capabilities. Our familiarity with this industry means that we can help make a seamless transition from test plan development and test preparation, government witnessing, on through the final stage of test reporting.

In support of the U.S. Government’s national security, foreign policy and economic security efforts, it is the express policy of Environ Laboratories, LLC to fully comply with all applicable U.S. export laws and regulations. Such laws and regulations include, but are not limited to:

  • The Arms Export Control Act;
  • The International Traffic in Arms Regulations (“ITAR”), administered by the U.S. Department of State’s Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (“DDTC”); and
  • The Foreign Trade Regulations, as administered by the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of the Census.

We understand the necessary steps to control the temporary importation of defense articles and the export of defense hardware, technical data and services, including obtaining the required licenses or other authorizations from the U.S. Department of State if necessary.

If after reviewing the U.S. Munitions list and ITAR, you are unsure of the export jurisdiction of your product, you can request a Commodity Jurisdiction determination from the U.S. Department of State DS-4076: http://www.pmddtc.state.gov/commodity_jurisdiction/documents/DS4076.pdf

Not all products that require military standard testing are subject to the restrictive provisions and we can help you in making this determination.
