Quality, Environmental and Energy Management System
Quality assurance system according to GAR
In addition to our certified quality and environmental management system according to the current ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 standards, we have introduced a quality assurance system in accordance with the Regulation (EU) 2016/426 on appliances burning gaseous fuels and repealing Directive 2009/142/EC - GAR - for the manufacture of components for the intended use with gas appliances.
This was certified to us by DVGW CERT GmbH as Notified Body No. 0085.
Quality assurance system for the production of gas appliances and related equipment
Some product standards used as a basis for testing are not harmonised with the Regulation (EU) 2016/426 on appliances burning gaseous fuels (GAR). They are mainly DIN standards which - except in Germany - are not valid in the EU.
For this formal reason, the certification of our quality assurance system is required for "products in the non-harmonised area".
DVGW CERT GmbH carries out on a recurring basis the necessary monitoring of the product quality and issues a certificate when the result is positive.
