Security for inspection and certification
Inspection and certification processes demand demonstrable reliability. Organizations need to prove that their adhesive bonding processes are safe, repeatable and compliant with international standards. Achieving this means more than selecting the right adhesive. It includes independent lab validation, detailed process documentation and qualified employees.
Our Role
Testing and certification support
Testing and certification demand more than just choosing the right adhesive. Companies are expected to ensure that processes are reproducible, employees are properly qualified and test results are reliable. Without that evidence, audits and pathways can cause delays or rejections.
Lijmacademie helps organizations with a combination of research, training and process support. With this, we ensure that companies are always prepared for audits and certification processes. Specifically, we offer support with:
- Independent testing and validation in the Research Lab
- Process assurance and QA/QC according to international standards
- European recognized training and personal certification
- Guidance on audits and supplier reviews
Practice
Applications within inspection and certification
In inspection and certification processes, there are various situations in which adhesive processes must be demonstrably reliable. More than just technology is involved: proof, documentation and the right certificates play a decisive role. Companies must be able to show that their materials and processes meet international standards and that employees are demonstrably qualified. Some common applications include:
How we support companies in this industry
For organizations dealing with inspection and certification, Lijmacademie offers a complete solution to make adhesive processes demonstrably reliable. In our research laboratory, we conduct the tests and validations required to comply with international standards. Through Prototyping & Assembly we help establish processes with full QA/QC assurance, ensuring that audits can be passed with confidence. And through our Training Center, we provide European-recognized training programs that are accepted across all major quality systems.
In doing so, we combine expert knowledge, process support and certification into one total solution, enabling companies to increase their reliability and always be prepared for audits and supplier reviews.

Frequently asked questions about inspection & certification
What is covered by inspection and certification in adhesive technology?
Inspection and certification in adhesive technology involve demonstrating that joints and processes are reliable and reproducible. This is achieved through test evidence from an independent lab, clear process documentation, and demonstrably qualified employees.
What is "independent validation" and why is it necessary?
Validation means that adhesive joints have been tested under representative conditions. Independent means the testing is conducted by an external party, so the results can serve as unbiased and verifiable evidence.
What is meant by process assurance and QA/QC?
Process assurance and QA/QC ensure that quality is embedded and controlled at every step. This includes clear work instructions, defined parameters, process controls, and proper documentation, resulting in predictable, reliable outcomes.
Can you support us if we already have an adhesive process in place?
Yes. We can test existing processes in the Research Lab, honing QA/QC through Prototyping & Assembly, provide targeted training to teams where needed and on-site support when necessary.
Who within our organization is this relevant to?
This is relevant for operators, planners, technicians, engineers, and quality managers. Inspection and certification affect both the practical execution and the design and assurance of adhesive bonding processes.
