LDK Solar’s module lab takes part in Intertek Group’s SATELLITE program

XINYU CITY, CHINA & SUNNYVALE, USA: LDK Solar Co. Ltd, a leading vertically integrated manufacturer of photovoltaic (PV) products, announced that its PV Module Lab located in Nanchang City, Jiangxi Province, in the People’s Republic of China, has officially taken part in Intertek Group’s SATELLITE Program, a data acceptance program, which can help manufacturers reduce compliance costs and decrease time to market for new products.

By joining the SATELLITE Program, LDK Solar’s Test Lab becomes officially recognized by Intertek as a qualified and authorized SATELLITE laboratory.

Intertek developed its SATELLITE Program in response to the ever increasing market requirements for product certification. Conducting tests in customers' own labs, on their own schedule, customers obtain Intertek's market–leading certifications for their products.

Under the SATELLITE Program, customers can choose the level of service that's right for their compliance and sales goals. When the testing results meet all certification requirements, Intertek will issue the requested certificate, such as ETL based on UL1703 standards.

The practice under the SATELLITE Program can greatly reduce the testing/certification lead time, thus facilitating the timely introduction of new products into the market place.

“We are very pleased to establish this strategic partnership with Intertek”, stated Xiaofeng Peng, chairman and CEO of LDK Solar. “By joining the SATELLITE Program, LDK can save time testing modules while streamlining costs. Most importantly, participating in the SATELLITE Program is another example of LDK Solar’s continued dedication to ensuring module quality and customer satisfaction.”
