Ensure Safety & Compliance for Your Industrial Machinery

At TÜV Rheinland North America, we offer independent, rigorously accredited testing services to help U.S. manufacturers and machine builders keep their equipment safe, reliable, and compliant. Whether you’re shipping within the U.S., exporting abroad, or simply aiming to raise operational standards, we support you in reducing risk, cutting downtime, and meeting regulatory demands with confidence.

Why Machinery Testing Is Critical for U.S. Industry

Industrial equipment must not only perform but also protect - your operators, your assets and your business continuity. Regular mechanical and safety testing helps you:

  • Identify hazards and latent failures before they cause costly downtime or injuries
  • Meet U.S. and international regulatory regimes (such as OSHA, ANSI, NFPA, ISO, and CE if exporting)
  • Build trust with OEMs, end-users, insurers and regulators
  • Strengthen your competitive position by demonstrating clear compliance and high quality
