Conti's airspring lab certified as independent

ERJ staff report (LMH)

ContiTech says it now has the world's only officially certified independent testing lab for air suspension systems in rail vehicles. Twelve testing procedures that are important for the rail industry have been accredited to DIN EN ISO / IEC 17025.

“Fulfilling the DIN standard represents a major step in our cooperation with our customers”, commented Friedrich Hoppmann, ContiTech Railway Engineering segment leader. “Original equipment suppliers and manufacturers often request test data from an accredited lab. We can now give them that.”

For instance, the certificate is relevant for further involvement in the equipping of high-speed trains. With the certification to ISO 9001, TS 16949 and IRIS, the test laboratory has fulfilled top requirements already for many years, ContiTech says.
