BIS TESTINGFor Footwear Products

MANUFACTURING AND RETAILER CHALLENGES

Protecting brand equity and reputation whilst validating product quality, performance characteristics and durability are traditionally prime concerns for footwear retailers and brands. Navigating the increasing trend towards customization and the adoption of smart technologies such as wireless (Bluetooth, WiFi) or 3D Printing is increasingly becoming a real challenge impacting the footwear industry.

As such, buyers or sellers of footwear have to navigate multiple criteria to remain successful:

• The evolving consumer need for speed and customization
• The changing regulatory and commercial landscape
• Shifts in sourcing patterns
• Innovations such as smart or intelligent footwear

Never has there been a stronger need for a testing, inspection / audit and certification partner not just with broad capabilities but also with a global footprint. Our Lab in India is approved and listed on the BIS website where you can view our full accreditation.
