If your company designs or manufactures equipment such as steam boilers, pressure vessels, and safety valves, and you want to ensure their safe distribution in Europe, you can benefit from Pressure Equipment Directive (PED) certification.

Pressure Equipment Directive (PED) 2014/68/EU

Designed to ensure the safety of pressure equipment in Europe, the PED is a mandatory regulation agreed upon by EU member states regarding the safety of pressure equipment. It covers the design, manufacture, and conformity assessment of pressure equipment for fixed installations with a maximum permissible pressure higher than 0.5 bar.

Assessment of Pressure Equipment According to PED 2014/68/EU

For pressure equipment, conformity assessment procedures must be completed, including but not limited to:
· Design Approval: Ensure that the equipment design meets the safety requirements of PED.

· Material Approval: Verify that the materials used to fabricate the equipment meet PED standards.

· Welding Process and Welder Evaluation: Ensure that the welding process and welder qualifications meet PED requirements.

We provide professional PED certification consulting services to assist you in completing the above conformity assessments. [Kiwa PED Certification Consulting Services] mainly focus on the compliance assessment of product design, materials, and processes, helping you meet PED regulatory requirements from the source.
