NORTHBROOK, ILUnderwriters Laboratories and Microtek Laboratories have signed a deal to expand UL’s services for PCBs. The agreement provides PCB manufacturers with comprehensive conformance testing and certification services.

The Preferred Partner Program covers testing under UL standards for PCBs, including UL 94, the test for flammability of plastic materials for parts in devices and appliances; UL 796, the test for printed wiring boards; and UL 796F, the test for flexible materials interconnect constructions. 

The deal extends UL’s reach, permitting PCB manufacturers working with UL to use Microtek services, including testing and certification to China’s CQC-V084 standard, and performance and reliability testing to various IPC standards and environmental simulation, among others.

No financial terms of the agreement were disclosed.
