December 21, 2017 --- UL, "Underwriters Laboratories", the safety certification organization, has granted the HARTING Technology Group the approval and license for the Client Test Data program. Under this program, HARTING is able to conduct testing in its own test laboratory, and submit the data to UL in order to streamline the process for UL certification. As a consequence, UL certification requirements are now integrated into HARTING’s product development process, as samples can be tested in-house.
UL product certification, in turn, provides HARTING Technology Group access to the North American Market. UL is an independent safety science organisation that helps manufacturers to tackle business challenges and opportunities in safety and compliance, cybersecurity, sustainability, quality and brand leadership. The headquarters of the company is based in Northbrook, IL, with numerous locations around the globe.
