Housing two of the largest commercial sand and dust testing facilities in Europe, Particle Technology can assess and improve how well your components, systems and products perform in desert and other unfavourable conditions.
Every environment presents its own challenges to optimum performance of equipment. For desert regions, the penetration of sand and dust into cracks and crevices, of anything from a mobile phone to a military vehicle, can have negative effects.
Sand & Dust Testing from Particle Technology uses a specialised dust chamber and testing procedure to simulate desert conditions in order to evaluate how well your products cope. The information we provide will help inform changes to your products, improving performance, longevity, customer/user perception and your bottom line.
Our commitment to quality is evident by our ISO 9001 approval by BSI for the manufacture of standardised test dusts and the provision of accredited testing services. Our UKAS schedule of accreditation to ISO 17025 demonstrates our technical competence and includes blowing sand and dust testing to internationally recognised standards including:
There are numerous benefits to using accredited testing services like those offered by Particle Technology: you can be assured that the work you have commissioned will be completed to the highest standards, avoid the time and costs associated with assessing suppliers individually, and have an approved supply-chain that supports your own accreditation.

Using our dust chamber, the largest of its kind in the UK, we are able to perform bespoke sand and dust testing to simulate desert conditions. Parameters such as dust concentration, air velocity, temperature and humidity are controlled throughout the test.
We are ideally located in the East Midlands, saving UK customers the additional cost of shipping components overseas for testing.
With the production of Test Dusts, a critical part of our operation at Particle Technology, we have a range of samples for you to choose from for application in our testing services, as well as the expertise to create bespoke Test Dusts to customer and project specification.
As with all of our testing services, our experience, expertise and state-of-the-art facilities allow us to tailor our offering to suit your specific needs. This may include:
We will discuss these requirements and any other considerations during consultation, so that we provide the best solution for your needs.
