Davies Bangor-on-Dee Packaging-Testing Reference

Partially verified listing. Useful packaging methods are documented, but the exact Laboratory location is unresolved. Halghton Mill is retained as a published contact, and offsite Sites methods are not presented as fixed local capabilities.

Davies Development and TestingBangor-on-Dee, Wrexham, North Wales

Davies publishes its Halghton Mill contact at Bangor-on-Dee and describes a behavioural laboratory in North Wales. UKAS 2772 issue 012, dated 3 September 2025, assigns child/adult and ease-of-opening panel methods to suitable offsite Sites. It assigns force and torque testing of minor modifications to approved reclosable packaging to Laboratory, without explicitly locating that code at Halghton Mill. This partial documentary reference preserves those distinct allocations; current testing at the exact Bangor-on-Dee address is unresolved.

Key facts

Documentary location distinction
The retained schedule identifies Halghton Mill as the organisation/contact address. Its away-site table defines Sites as suitable locations; the detailed force/torque entry uses Laboratory without an explicit address for that code.

Testing capabilities

Documented Laboratory force and torque scope

For minor modifications to ISO 8317:2015 type-approved child-resistant reclosable packaging, the schedule lists force and torque resistance to opening, disassembly and reclosing. In-house methods follow BS EN ISO 13127:2012 Annexes A–J and exclude container conditioning. The code is Laboratory; its exact location remains unresolved.

Documented offsite behavioural panels

The schedule assigns resistance to opening by children and accessibility by adults to Sites under named reclosable/non-reclosable packaging references. Ease-of-opening panel testing is also Sites, under BS EN ISO 17480:2018 clause 5.3 and Annex D. These are not fixed Bangor-on-Dee services.

Standards and accreditation

UKAS 2772 documentary scope
Issue 012 dated 3 September 2025 identifies the organisation’s ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accreditation and separate packaging/panel allocations. The force/torque row is limited to minor modifications of type-approved ISO 8317:2015 packaging, uses the stated in-house Annex A–J methods and excludes container conditioning.

What to confirm with the facility

  • The inspected sources do not explicitly bind Laboratory to Halghton Mill. North Wales behavioural-laboratory wording and a Bangor-on-Dee contact footer do not establish current force/torque testing at that address. Sites panel methods remain separate.
  • Confirm the operator, exact test location, method, specimen preparation, current scope, availability and quotation.

    Organisation/contact address and documentary packaging scope. Sites and the unlocated Laboratory code remain distinct; no exact-address method allocation is established.

    Published Bangor-on-Dee contact/email. Broad panel-test wording and malformed phone formatting do not resolve an exact fixed laboratory allocation.
