Testing is a major activity in our life. Journalists are waiting for figures of audience, politicians for results in election, Cyril for orders from clients, all the other ones are waiting for our cook to tell us what she appreciate, our Testing Chief Officer Gisa if the last release of this new incredible grate really improves the results, or our partner from Oregon (US), Aprovecho, to says if the emission figures are as low as we expect!
We basically rely on 3 levels of tests :
| Type of test | What for? | Our assets |
| On the ground | durability, acceptance | 2 cooks, everyday in the office, field surveys and interactive workshops |
| In House | performances | Permanent professional staff, tools |
| External | independent validation, costly investment | Partnership with Aprovecho stove lab |
On the Ground and in-house test allow us to react very quickly if a partner or a client need an adaptation of its product. The more we advance towards industrialization, the more we standardize, to lower the cost.
But in pilot phase, we want to remain extremely reactive and agile with our partners.
Externalizing guarantee a neutral test by independent and recognized organizations. We also use them when testing requires an expensive material.
