PCL East follows the company’s acquisition of mechanical testing services provider Quest Engineering Solutions in May 2025, expanding its capabilities to provide medical device packaging and product testing services.

PCL East  has moved the ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation to A2LA, the same body that accredits Kraft facility of Packaging Compliance Labs.

Packaging Compliance Labs is backed by SV Health Investors, a healthcare-focused private equity company, which invested in the company in June 2023.

At the time, SV Health Investors described the Packaging Compliance Labs transaction as a new platform investment aligned with its model of partnering with industry founders and entrepreneurs to build healthcare services businesses.
