Building successful QA and responsible sourcing programs from the ground up.

Strategy. Most successful businesses deploy extensive planning and development resources—not to mention expenditure—across their operations. When it comes to quality assurance testing and responsible sourcing though, those same businesses find themselves playing catch-up when product recalls, competitive market share losses or new regulations take a bite out of profits. Random product testing or sporadic factory audits cannot provide the level of security that UL-STR’s program development experts are trained to provide. Our services help clients across a spectrum of industries identify pain points and potential risks, promote best practices and develop a quality assurance or responsible sourcing program that fits their needs.

There’s over six decades of experience behind every program UL-STR develops. Whether you manufacture sneakers or supplements, operate in Hong Kong or Honduras, sell in Miami or Mexico City—we can help determine the right strategy for your business. Our laboratories and staff are accredited by recognized industry and international standards bodies. Services include a wide range of laboratory and consumer testing, factory audits, and product inspections. Additionally, our program development and management tools help clients ensure that quality is built in to the product development process, from concept to market.
