Solar Thermal System Testing
Reliable inspection and certification for solar thermal systems
In an increasingly competitive field, solar collector and systems manufacturers, operators and distributers strive to prove the superiority of their products and conformance with international norms.
Our inspection teams provide expert testing in accordance with EN 12975 and 12976 and can support you in gaining access to global markets. You can choose from our standard, special or expanded testing services, or we can design a custom-made package tailored to your needs.
Our goal is to ensure the quality, safety, reliability and performance of your solar thermal product. As part of our continuous improvement efforts, we have shortened testing times, expanded the global distribution of our outdoor testing areas and invested in cutting-edge testing equipment. These measures, coupled with a solid reputation and years of experience make us a valuable partner in the field of solar thermal energy.
