4 years ago the idea of packaging testing took root...
Three optimistic "Greenland boys" had a plan; Norwegian Packaging Testing!
March 22 at: 18:00 they gathered in Brevik with a six-pack of beer (The packaging contribution!). At midnight they went their separate ways with a shared dream and a "to do" list.
Next meeting was April 5; already then the name was changed to Nordisk Emballasje Testing. NET wanted to play on a team with packaging customers across the Nordic region. Main objective; Delegated authority for certification of packaging and Accreditation in accordance with ISO 17025.
03 Jan 2007; Delegated authority regarding control and approval of packaging, including IBCs and large packaging for the transport of dangerous goods, issued by DSB.
22 May 2007; Nordisk Emballasje Testing receives the Accreditation Certificate (ISO17025) from Swedac.
Jun 12, 2008; Delegated authority for testing dangerous goods packaging in accordance with IMDG, issued by the Norwegian Maritime Directorate.
10 Mar 2010; Delegated authority regarding testing and approval of packaging according to ICAO-TI; issued by the Norwegian Civil Aviation Authority.
