The only European laboratory in Europe that tests diving wetsuits as per ISO 17025 accreditation
As the only laboratory in Europe to hold this accreditation, TECNALIA is able to carry out the conformity assessment of diving wetsuits and surf suits for our clients, with complete safety and confidence. All these tests are accredited as per ISO 17025 by ENAC/ILAC (International Organisation for Accreditation Bodies).
Diving wetsuits and surf suits marketed in the European Union (EU) must bear the CE marking as required by Regulation (EU) 2016/425 of the European Parliament and of the Council, as these products are considered Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) in Europe and therefore must comply with the essential health and safety requirements set out in the regulation for them to be marketed.
“Testing wet suits in accordance with EN 14225-1 ensures compliance with current European regulations and guarantees the safety, quality and comfort of the wet suit, which can have a significant impact on the user's experience in the water”
