Intertek was recognized by Sasol Wax as Service Provider of the year for 2012, in recognition of dedicated laboratory testing and support services provided by Intertek to Sasol Wax operations.
The Intertek wax lab is located in the Sasol Wax plant, on the premises of the Engen Refinery in Durban, South Africa. The wax lab analyzes a wide range of petroleum-based waxes, synthetic waxes, paraffin waxes, and petroleum jellies, and other wax-related products used in various industries.
Intertek provides outsourced laboratory services to the Sasol Wax Durban Supply Center, and has operated there for over 11 years. To support Sasol, Intertek is responsible for all in-process and final quality control and quality assurances checks. No product, either solid or liquid, is released without Intertek’s certification.
Robert Markus, MD for sub-Sahara Africa commented: "Congratulations to all our people in the Intertek Wax lab on this achievement. Your dedication to customer service exemplifies the true Intertek spirit of delivering a valued, quality service."
The Intertek lab also provides independent, confidential, and impartial wax testing for other clients at the testing facility.
Operating on a continuous 24/7/365 basis, the Intertek wax lab in South Africa is a SANAS 17025 accredited lab with 11 accredited tests.
