The company offers has a range of whole shoe tests set up to assess the comfort, performance and durability of all types of footwear.

The website provides information on six product sectors: everyday, fashion, safety, sports, performance and military.

Each section presents a photographic example of a relevant shoe on which there are interactive 'hotspots' pinpointing key features for testing, accompanied by video clips.

The group’s head of footwear testing, Darren Roberts, said: "We have witnessed an increased demand for a more holistic approach to footwear testing, especially from brands looking to achieve a market edge with their products."
