In 1885 we started testing and certifying shipments of grain before they were shipped by sea, and in 1888 we pioneered the idea of independent testing laboratories. Then, in 1896, one of the world's greatest inventors became part of our history. This is Thomas Edison, who when he published his work on the wonders of electricity and the light bulb, wanted to ensure that his products are checked, tested to ensure their safety. He then created the "Lamp testing Bureau" which would later become the "Electrical Testing Laboratories". More than a century later, we maintain its ETL quality mark, and continue to set new quality standards to protect consumers and the reputations of our customers around the world. Today, we are a global company, operating in over 100 countries, providing a 24/7 total quality assurance proposition to customers around the world.
