German independent inspection firm TÜVRheinland on March 1 launched its first electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) laboratory in northern Hung Yen Province.

The laboratory covers 1,000m2 of floor space and will focus on emission, pulse immunity and radio testing, as well as providing full EMC conformity assessment for many electrical products.

The new EMC laboratory will also provide measurement and testing services follow the latest international regulations.

The cost incurred for the laboratory was not disclosed.

Speaking at the opening ceremony, TÜVRheinland's executive board of management Ralf Scheller said the laboratory reaffirms the group's commitment to support the development of Vietnamese industries.

"To make its mark in international markets, the manufacturing testing organisations in Viet Nam need to support and to verify compliance with conformity assessment schemes. This new laboratory will support that, while at the same time providing the resources necessary to enhance the use of radio frequencies and develop new electric and electronic devices, he said," he said.

TÜVRheinland opened its first office in Viet Nam in 2001. The Vietnamese office currently provides testing services for footwear, building products and indoor furniture.
