Moorcroft is a UK provider of electrical engineering applications for large industrial plants. The cooperation with Testo reaches back for more than two decades. The fact that the company recommends the Testo Saveris Solutions to its customers is a double vote of confidence and a sign that the Testo solution can ensure bespoke safety and compliance in a wide range of environments.
Moorcroft is a specialized provider of electrotechnical solutions, focusing on the construction and maintenance of control systems. The company serves a variety of demanding industries, including aerospace, defense, pharmaceuticals, the public health sector, as well as oil and gas companies. Moorcroft excels in developing bespoke control systems that range from manufacturing to integration into production environments and the implementation of power cabinets. Moorcroft has over 20 years of experience using Testo products. Testo is proud of a close relationship to a customer with extensive technical expertise in the collaboration with globally renowned manufacturers, as well as numerous smaller system providers.
Moorcroft frequently faces the challenge of specifying high-quality systems. While there is a wide range of low-budget suppliers, the quality of the devices and solutions offered is often unsatisfactory. The customers of Moorcroft demand and require robust equipment which will ensure Compliance, the protection of assets through consistent environmental monitoring, and which offers the opportunity to continuously improve internal processes. All of this needs to be achieved while staying within the strict budget limits of the customer. In today’s times, some companies are confronted with insufficient in-house engineering resources, for example because of a shortage of skilled personnel.
Hence a stable-running technical solution for GMP monitoring and process excellence is an attractive solution for many firms. There are also concerns about the origin and credibility of supply chains, particularly regarding equipment sourced from regions with low trust in production standards.
Additional challenges include the compatibility with existing systems and bridging knowledge gaps. Continuous technical support is essential. Lifecycle costs, regulatory requirements, and the need to integrate the latest technologies reliably and flexibly are further requirements of Moorcroft’s customers.
For over two decades, Testo has closely worked with Moorcroft, implementing a comprehensive product portfolio and a comprehensive approach that goes far beyond the simple sale of a product. One of Testo’s standout solutions is the Saveris 1 system, an automated monitoring system for the precise recording and analysis of these critical environmental parameters. By meeting pharma compliance requirements such as GxP and 21 CFR Part 11, this system is highly powerful and useful in all other industries in which environmental monitoring is important.
The system’s modular and adaptable design ensures seamless integration into any infrastructure, whether wired, wireless, web-based, or on-site. This flexibility allows Moorcroft to tailor solutions to each of their customer’s specific needs, even on the most complex sites. Additionally, the ability for backwards compatibility ensures that new technologies can be integrated into existing systems without requiring complete overhauls, offering cost efficiency and long-term value.
Testo also places strong emphasis on support and collaboration. Moorcroft highlights the exceptional training and technical assistance provided by Testo’s well-trained and approachable team. This hands-on support helps Moorcroft understand the nuances of Testo’s products and pass that expertise on to their own customers. Localized support ensures that challenges are addressed quickly and effectively, reinforcing the reliability of Testo’s solutions.
Testo delivers a unique combination of cutting-edge technology, robust compliance, and outstanding customer support.

Another key factor in the collaboration is Testo’s unwavering commitment to quality and compliance. The strong reputation of German engineering aligns perfectly with Moorcroft’s insistence on process excellence. This reliability is particularly vital in industries where adherence to strict standards, such as GMP, is non-negotiable. Testo’s ability to meet these requirements with confidence provides both Moorcroft and its customers with peace of mind.
Moreover, Testo products are designed with a focus on lifecycle cost efficiency. Features such as digital and automated sensor technology reduce maintenance and calibration costs while enhancing safety and reliability.
While the initial investment may be higher than that of lower-quality alternatives, the long-term savings and operational benefits far outweigh the upfront costs, making the testo Saveris 1 system a highly cost-effective choice.
The collaboration between Testo and Moorcroft has been exemplified through the recent successful implementation of the testo Saveris 1 system at The Pirbright Institute.
During the tender stage of the project, the testo Saveris 1 system proposed for the Institute aligned to the user requirement specification and also provided many more features and benefits than the existing system. The project was delivered by Moorcroft, and Testo played a key role during the design stage to ensure that the system being installed would meet the brief. The equipment looks professional and is very robust to be installed in various environments. During installation, we did encounter some issues in communication of sensors to the software; however, Testo provided support from their team in Germany, who were able to resolve these issues and enabled us to deliver the project on time. We have also found that Testo are very good when receiving customer feedback and are looking at ways to implement some of the suggestions we have made for future improvement of the testo Saveris 1 System.
