Hydrogen as an energy carrier is becoming a bigger focus over the years. However, to create a worldwide hydrogen economy with fuel cells providing clean and safe electrical energy, end users will have to embrace hydrogen. That means using it onboard vehicles, at fueling stations, as the heat/cold and electricity supplier in their homes and as fuel supply of their electronic devices such as laptops and cell phones.


If you wish to launch your hydrogen generators on the European market, you are compelled to test and certify according to the standards ISO 22734 and ISO 16110.  If you deal with international market outside of the EU, we can usually provide you with the necessary certification there as well. Let us be your only stop in the world of testing and certification.
