Introduction
Sometimes a Type Approval isn’t needed, but you still may want to offer your customers peace of mind that your machinery is designed to meet standard rules or regulations.
LR’s Machinery General Design Appraisal team can support the design and construction process, increasing your confidence in the final product. We’ll ensure that it meets the highest safety, quality and reliability standards.
Why Design Appraisal?
Our design appraisal teams can help you streamline the design and construction process, increasing your confidence in the performance of your products in the future.

Our environmental services can help you to demonstrate a clear commitment to the environment and its protection.
