In addition to European type approvals, HCS also offers consultancy services for China, India, Australia and many other markets.

Test Facilities

HCS co-operates with ISO17025 accredited test facilities which enables us to fulfil various test requirements.


HCS can also perform supervision (witness) tests at the manufacturer’s premises or at a third party laboratory, which gives the manufacturer’s freedom of choice in the testing location.
