About us

Our international presence

With over 8,400 employees in more than 70 countries of Europe, Asia, America and Africa, the TÜV NORD Group is actively committed to its national and international customers. Its broad consulting, service and testing/inspection portfolio encompasses both specific individual tests/inspections and also management of complex safety solutions.

The TÜV NORD Group is made up of the following divisions: mobility, industrial services, international, raw materials, personnel and education. As a customer-oriented competence centre, it is in constant contact with its customers for analyzing, consulting, developing individual solutions and joint implementation with the customer.

TÜV NORD Group customers benefit from the broad, well-founded expertise of the consultants and inspectors. Through their understanding of the subject and the customer, the employees form the backbone of the company's success.

The roots

The success story of the TÜV NORD Group has its roots in the traditional boiler inspection associations that voluntarily obligated themselves to begin monitoring and ensuring the operational safety of boilers in 1869. Gradually, the government gave the DÜV, later known as the TÜV (Technical Inspection Association) additional safety-related tasks such as the general inspection of automobiles, which is now synonymous with certified traffic safety.

Value-based company culture

Common to these highly specified areas of activity, the TÜV NORD Group’s corporate philosophy is based on its original values of independence, objectivity, neutrality and integrity. Firmly anchored in its guiding corporate principles, these standards are practised both internally and externally on a daily basis.

Our unique philosophy of combining technological expertise, personal integrity and value-based corporate culture means customers trust TÜV NORD and its ability to support and guide them safely towards the future.
