Testimonials

Atlantic Tech Systems, L.L.C.

Dear Mauricio,

I would like to thank you and everyone at ARL for always being professional. Everyone there has been easy to work with and dedicated. Going through the testing process was a painless event. The communication with the Director of Engineering through the testing process was wonderful always keeping me up to date.

As far as Follow-Up Inspections, it is a must for every manufacturing facility. Your inspections kept my company in compliance with all applicable standards and all ARL requirements.

Out of all the Listing agencies I have ever dealt with in the past ARL is 2nd to none. Thank you again for everything you and ARL have done.

Black Box VR

As a first-time client of ARL, I was thoroughly impressed with their responsiveness, professionalism, and knowledge pertaining to our unique situation. Every interaction with them from the first phone call to the final report was frictionless and enjoyable. Their ability to diagnose our system and conduct a field inspection within such a short timeframe was critical for our company’s tight launch schedule. It was a pleasure working with the Senior Staff Engineer during the field inspection as he was very knowledgeable and provided many insights that will help our engineering team ensure our products meet future compliance as we evolve. In short, ARL has gained a long term client in Black Box VR and we fully trust their ability to conduct the testing required to certify our products.
