Originally the Lab was established in 1995. It was the first laboratory in United Arab Emirates which achieved ISO 9002 certification after preparation of a comprehensive Quality Manual and establishing a proper quality system  in March 1996. This certification was a reflectance of the leaderships' desire for recognized quality.

To demonstrate the ability of producing accurate results, to gain the confidence of end users and various governmental bodies, to achieve the set goals and targets, the first step for a lab is to get internationally recognized. For this purpose in 2003, the entire quality manual was re-written in accordance with the requirements of latest international standards for testing laboratories ISO/IEC 17025, the whole quality system was re-structured to meet with the requirements of the standards and then accreditation to ISO 17025 was achieved successfully.

Material Lab has successfully completed various prestigious projects all over the UAE not only onshore but offshore as well. Material Lab has its client database spread all over the Gulf and other neighboring GCC countries. Lab receives samples regularly from Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Oman, Jordan, Bahrain, Pakistan, Africa and Afghanistan.
