SAN LEANDRO, Calif. & LAS VEGAS: Certerra, a leading provider of technology-enabled testing, inspection, and certification services for critical infrastructure markets, today announced affiliate company Certerra RMA Group’s acquisition of Testing Engineers, a premier materials testing laboratory based in San Leandro, California.

Founded in 1954, Testing Engineers has served the San Francisco Bay Area for nearly seven decades. The company operates one of the most advanced and well-equipped laboratory facilities in Northern California, providing comprehensive testing and inspection services for code compliance and quality assurance. The firm is particularly recognized for its advanced metallurgy and materials testing capabilities, including detailed analysis and testing of structural steel, bolts and fasteners, and other critical components.
