Quality, safety and reliability assuredAccess global markets with holistic solutions for electrical and electronic products.

TÜV SÜD

As international competition increases across the electrical and electronic products industry, profit margins are being squeezed by lower market prices, rising production and material costs, and a need to reduce time to market. Manufacturers may provide high-quality approval samples to traders and importers, only to fail to maintain consistent quality in the production series. Retailers and producers require a better understanding of the latest regulatory requirements in different countries so that they can ensure regulatory compliance for their products. In the increasingly media-savvy business environment, overseas factories must also be safeguarded from ethical, environmental, social, and health and safety concerns.

TÜV SÜD is one of the first Certification Bodies to be accredited to perform product testing in compliance to the GS mark. Our technical competencies span consumer electronics such as household appliances, luminaries as well as power and garden tools. This makes us well suited to provide knowledge and training services concerning current safety and quality issues, and regulatory requirements. We also have extensive experience in testing and inspection, which we can provide globally with quick turnaround times and personalised service. Our customised quality control programmes are tailored for the specific testing needs of clients. TÜV SÜD is also a trusted name for management systems and social compliance audits.

Quality control throughout the supply chain is critical to reconcile the demands of the market with the expediencies of manufacturers.

Meet international market demands Electrical and electronic products have become ubiquitous in daily life for consumers. Fast-growing markets are setting higher expectations for the quality and reliability of their devices, equipment and appliances. The high rate of technological change and the urgency in meeting new consumer trends are putting pressure on local manufacturers and their international buyers. TÜV SÜD understands the challenges of bringing electrical and electronic products to market in a timely fashion while meeting quality expectations. Our testing, inspection, certification, training and knowledge services will help you ensure consistent quality across a complex international supply chain.
