Research and Testing Services

LAB University of Applied Sciences laboratories provide expert support for companies and organisations in product development, testing, and research. Our laboratories are located in Lahti and Lappeenranta.

We work with companies through commissioned services, where our experts deliver measurements, analyses and development assignments tailored to identified needs. Collaboration is also carried out through joint projects as part of our research, development and innovation (RDI) activities, supported by national and international funding.

LAB laboratories also function as dynamic learning environments. Cooperation with companies offers students the opportunity to work on real‑life, industry‑driven projects, while companies benefit from new expertise and fresh perspectives from future professionals.
