Central register for certified welding companies in Europe
The EN 15085 online register is a central tool for quality assurance in the certification of welding companies in rail vehicle construction. It serves national safety authorities, manufacturer certification bodies, the rail vehicle industry, and railway operators.
The register lists all certificates issued by accredited bodies recognized by the European Committee for Welding of Railway Vehicles (ECWRV). It also includes special extensions according to DIN 27201‑6 (maintenance), DIN 27201‑10 (thermal spraying), and section 6.8.2.1.23 RID (tanks).
The responsible body of the internet online database is SLV Halle GmbH in cooperation with the ECWRV, the National Safety Agency EBA, and the German national coordination committee on welding on rail vehicles.
