As an international, independent testing institute, we have earned the trust of numerous quality assurance organisations representing more than 800 companies worldwide. Our engineers work in accordance with recognised testing and quality standards, recording process flows and the quality of the components produced on site – ensuring consistently high standards, as evidenced by quality marks.
In addition to monitoring existing certifications, we also assist companies in preparing for quality audits and initial certification. Thanks to our independent approach and many years of experience, we make a significant contribution to quality assurance and process stability at our partner companies – from the initial audit through to successful certification.
