Homologation
Thanks to our close cooperation with government services, we are able to handle the homologation of vehicles extremely quickly and efficiently.
ESTL is a recognized technical service in Belgium as Type A, accredited to the ISO17025 standard. This allows us to offer the widest possible range of solutions.
We provide type approvals
The combination of a professional measurement lab in Deinze, a spacious test track, and mobile measurement equipment to perform tests on site, allows us to efficiently and cost-effectively test the conformity of your products with the current regulations.
With an emphasis on technical and administrative know-how, we provide:
- European vehicle type approval (WVTA)
- national small series approvals (NKS and PVG)
- evaluation and approvals for technical units
- system and component approvals of vehicles
Homologation of individual vehicles
Too busy, constructor abroad or no COP?
We have as ability to provide complete and completed homologation of vehicles. We perform the homologation in our lab, or on site, according to your preference.
We do this for completed (last stage, usually bodywork on a motor vehicle) or complete vehicles (1 stage, usually trailers).
We work internationally
Because homologation is a relatively complex matter with many potential pitfalls, we focus on good communication throughout the entire process. Our team members have an extensive technical background. They are a neutral point of contact in your search for a pragmatic and compliant solution.
We have good relationships with foreign labs, so we can offer you a larger scope. This makes ESTL a one-stop-shop for homologation.
We calibrate measuring equipment
We can check the condition of your measuring equipment to ensure that your company's metrology is up to scratch. You can find more information about our offer on the calibration page.
