Check your IT, telecommunications, audio and video products for repairability

Certain IT, telecommunications, audio, and video products must be able to be repaired within a reasonable period even after the end of the minimum warranty period.

Manufacturers who pay attention to a repair-friendly design at an early stage can benefit from good repairability - with the repairability test and the indication of a repairability index. This allows you to show the growing target group of environmentally and price-conscious consumers and commercial buyers that your product can be repaired well and therefore efficiently and that they are making a sustainable purchasing decision.

The repairability index for smartphones and tablets will be mandatory from 2025.

Have the repairability of your devices determined by TÜV Rheinland now and secure a decisive competitive advantage. Learn more!
