Sa inagurasyon, binigyang-diin ni RD Panacan ang kahalagahan ng ganitong pasilidad upang matiyak ang kalidad ng mga gagamiting materyales sa mga proyektong pang-imprastraktura alinsunod sa mandato sa kanilang departamento.
“We are the primary infrastructure arm of the government tasked to maintain the highest quality of infrastructure. Establishing this satellite materials testing laboratory is one step in achieving that mandate,” ayon kay RD Panacan.
“The most important about implementing the projects is not only seeing to it that we implement it according to standards but making sure that materials being incorporated are within the standards,” dagdag pa ng opisyal.
Makakatulong ang testing laboratory na ito upang mapabilis ang pagsusuri sa mga materyales na gagamitin sa iba’t ibang proyekto partikular sa mga malalayong lugar tulad ng lalawigan ng Palawan.
