This film, for which I have recorded the voice over, showcases the tests Decathlon products must undergo before being offered in shops.

Before reaching the shelves, a Decathlon product goes through a structured process: after design and prototype production, it undergoes technical laboratory tests (resistance, waterproofing, mechanical performance, climate tests), followed by field trials with users to validate comfort and real-life use.

Next come regulatory checks (safety, compliance with standards, substance control) and environmental assessments (life cycle) – only the products that pass these stages are approved for sale.
