STUTTGART, Germany, April 7, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- AT4 wireless, a DEKRA company, is now known as DEKRA. After realizing more than 25 years of consecutive growth, the internationally leading wireless and mobile testing & certification company was acquired by DEKRA in June 2015. Both inspection, testing and certification companies are now ready to provide their full offering and integrate their global network of testing laboratories and services under one brand: DEKRA.
Thanks to the strong international presence, with coverage of main wireless technologies and laboratories spanning the globe, there are many opportunities to strengthen existing relationships in different industries by means of synergies with other parts of DEKRA. "We possess a large potential for increased global growth by bundling services within DEKRA in the Internet of Things and Connected Driving markets. As part of DEKRA, we are making important investments in new facilities, testing services, and R&D activities with a strong focus on new wireless technologies to serve the Internet of Things market at full scope", says Fernando Hardasmal, CEO of DEKRA Testing & Certification S.A.U. (formerly AT4 wireless, S.A.U.).
DEKRA's global Product Testing & Certification division can support customers in diverse industry sectors throughout their value chain, from the ICT & Carrier market to larger and more diverse markets in which connectivity plays an ever increasing role, such as the automotive, retail, healthcare, and consumer industry. "Safety and connectivity truly go hand in hand. We will be able to serve customers with integrated services globally for innovative products every step of the development process until the new product reaches its market", says Bert Zoetbrood, CEO of DEKRA's global Product Testing & Certification division.
DEKRA is setting the course to ensure safety in the current and future digital world by developing, for example, expertise in vehicle connectivity and automated driving systems. In this context, DEKRA's established expertise as a global market leader for vehicle inspections and the newly integrated fields in electronics and telecommunications complement each other perfectly. In addition, DEKRA is further intensifying its focus on innovative and high tech segments with services such as wireless, EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility), RF (Radio Frequency), cybersecurity, functional safety testing, electrical safety, reliability, and failure testing as well as international market access.
Within the DEKRA Group, the former AT4 wireless, situated in Malaga, Spain, has developed into DEKRA's Global Competence Center for wireless testing. With that, the current management team, experts, and go-to contact persons remain unchanged. This ensures the knowledge, expertise, and experience with customer's products, systems, and processes stay with the right people.
