Environmental Technology Verification

ETV Environmental Technology Verification is third-party testing of environmental technologies according to the ISO 14034 requirements, which offers manufacturers and developers of innovative technologies the opportunity to receive a third-party verification of the declared performance of the proposed technology.

The main benefits of this service are to:

• increase the credibility of environmental technologies on the market;
• allow users and buyers of such technologies to identify the eco-innovations that are appropriate to their needs;
• ensure a wider recognition of audit results, both domestically and internationally;
• offer a guarantee for high levels of competitiveness.

The Setting

Environmental technologies can really help increase the efficiency of the use of resources, identifying the less demanding, less costly and less environmentally-burdensome alternatives to the current technologies, and introducing measures to mitigate and/or prevent the adverse effects of human activities on the natural environment.
The benefits of technological innovations in the environmental field are further enhanced by the fact that the policy on these technologies represents a win-win solution.
