TÜV NORD GROUP business units

Cars, lorries, buses and trains - the various modes of transport are becoming increasingly interlinked in the market. And the focus remains on electromobility. TÜV NORD is bundling its intermodal expertise in the new Mobility Business Unit. This includes periodic inspections and driving tests as well as providing support for new vehicle approvals and the safe interlinking of vehicles and infrastructure on road and on rail.

The digital industry requires both knowledge of traditional plant safety and expertise in networked systems. In the industrial sector, TÜV NORD focuses on testing and inspection activities in process technology, manufacturing technology and buildings. The internationally active test laboratories for food, environmental analyses and technical assessments are also bundled here.

The energy world is transforming into a decentralised interplay of different energy sources – fossil, nuclear and, in future, even more renewable. This requires comprehensive expertise for the ramp-up of the hydrogen economy and knowledge about the sustainable use of raw materials. TÜV NORD and DMT therefore support customers worldwide with integrated services in the new Energy & Resources Business Unit.

In an increasingly complex world, orientation and transparency are required. This is provided by independent, verifiable certifications, for example for sustainability, cybersecurity, management systems or social standards. In future, TÜV NORD will bundle certification services worldwide in the Certification business unit. Around three quarters of the employees in this business unit already live and work outside Germany.

All areas of life and the economy are already heavily influenced by digitalization. Semiconductor technologies are an important key factor and the basis of most of the existing technologies that characterize our modern and networked world. The security and reliability of sensitive data, electronic components and systems are also essential. The new Digital & Semiconductor business unit brings together ALTER and TÜVIT's expertise in semiconductors, IT security and communication technologies. Knowledge of artificial intelligence, quantum and nanotechnologies and new space will also be pooled here.

What do people need to be able to move safely in an increasingly technological world? With this focus on competences, TÜV NORD bundles diagnostics, consulting and further development in the new People & Empowerment business unit. It encompasses the large area of further training for professionals and executives, occupational health services and driving licence renewal.
