Impact Solutions

Impact Solutions is an independent UKAS and ISO 17025 accredited laboratory and innovation centre based in Scotland, specialising in materials testing, product development, and consultancy. Founded in 2002 as a spin-out from BP Chemicals, the company has evolved from a small test facility into a comprehensive service provider for the plastics, polymer, packaging, and chemical sectors. They provide a range of technical services, including failure analysis, accelerated weathering, biodegradation testing, and bespoke research and development. Through their Impact-Bio® platform, they offer specialised support for the development and verification of sustainable, biodegradable materials, helping clients navigate regulatory compliance and innovation challenges.

The company serves a global client base, ranging from local enterprises to multinational conglomerates, across industries such as automotive, recycling, and renewable energy. By acting as an independent expert, Impact Solutions helps partners bridge the gap between initial concept and commercialisation, providing the technical evidence needed to support sustainability claims and product integrity. They offer expertise in polymer science and petrochemicals, assisting with material characterisation, quality assurance, and grant applications for R&D projects. Their facility in Livingston acts as a hub for both testing and collaborative innovation, enabling clients to address technical challenges, improve product performance, and meet complex environmental standards.
