All testing is performed under UKAS-accredited procedures, providing results that are accurate, traceable and suitable for quality assurance, compliance and structural verification. Each test is supported by a full technical report and analysis, giving clients confidence in the performance and suitability of their fixings.

Swantest provides cost-effective anchor testing across London and the UK, covering all types of fixings in a wide range of base materials. From small anchors supporting light loads to high-load structural fixings, we carry out both tensile (pull-out) and shear load testing to verify performance against design requirements.

Our services include:

  • Proof load testing to verify correct installation and workmanship

  • Test to failure to assess base material suitability and ultimate capacity

  • Load verification testing for compliance and safety-critical applications

Using a range of specialist equipment, we deliver controlled, repeatable testing suitable for both routine quality checks and complex structural assessments.

Anchor testing forms a critical part of a robust on-site quality assurance process, particularly on safety-critical installations, where verification of load capacity and fixing performance is essential.
