TCR Engineering is proud to introduce a new value-added service for our long-term and contract clients: Complimentary Sample Pickup via a dedicated TCR-branded van.
As India's leading materials testing and inspection lab, we understand that time, logistics, and coordination are critical in the execution of large-scale industrial, infrastructure, and civil projects. That's why we're bringing our lab closer to you—literally.
🧪 Why This Matters
With our new pickup service, clients with long-term testing engagements can now request free pickup of material samples directly from:
- Plant locations
- Fabrication yards
- Civil construction sites
This service is available by prior scheduling and is designed to make testing logistics frictionless, especially for ongoing or bulk testing contracts.
🔍 What Happens After Pickup
Once collected, your samples are:
- Transported directly to our NABL & ISO 17025-accredited lab located in Mahape, Navi Mumbai, in a secure, professionally managed van.
- Unloaded safely using designated forklifts and trained helpers, ensuring sample integrity is maintained throughout.
- Immediately logged into our Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) — this enables complete digital traceability and ensures all handling and testing comply with industry norms and regulatory standards.
Every sample follows a chain of custody process, enabling full audit trails and compliance with our stringent quality protocols.
📦 Sample Size Guidelines: A Quick Glance
