Evolution of Megalab Group Inc

Our team brings a wealth of experience from some of the world's most cutting-edge laboratories, and high-tech manufacturers.

Garry Lee’s early engineering experience was gained with CSA International and Underwriters’ Laboratory. As a product safety compliance engineer, he identified a client service niche, and established Global Advantage International to pursue a unique way to work directly with clients.
This unique client approach permitted client engineers to “look over the shoulder” and participate in the certification testing process. Potential issues and design improvements were immediately noted, and remedies “kluged” quickly at our client work stations.

Communications with their office design team are readily available, accelerating final design approvals.
Global Advantage’s unique testing style resulted in strong product safety growth, and client demand led to establishing Global EMC, with an anechoic chamber providing wireless certification. Approximately 4 years ago, Garry sold Global Advantage and Global EMC to TUV SUD. During the transitional period, he developed EMTS Lab specializing in environmental and mechanical testing, a different certification channel to assist client in quality control.

Garry and a dedicated team quickly built the EMTS client base which merged last winter with product safety and EMC services as Megalab offering the broadest certification services in one location.

Garry Lee’s entrepreneurial style and drive attracted many past team members to join the new Aurora facility. All certification engineers have more than 10+ years experience and welcome you to enjoy their unique testing capabilities. In total the professional experience of the Megalab technical team exceeds 200 years!
