HDN / PED welding certificate

HDN stands for ‘Hygienic Design Network’ and is a collaborative partnership of companies in the food industry, ranging from component suppliers and system integrators to food manufacturers.

The goal of the HDN is to prevent problems during the production of food products at the end of the production line. This can only be achieved when the entire supply chain is involved.

The HDN method offers a uniform interpretation of standards and requirements, with a practical approach to compliance. Quality is guaranteed by a certification system for designers, engineers, welders and inspectors.

Our hygienic welders are HDN / PED certified. To become certified, welders must pass a theory and practical test, with all welds subject to X-ray testing in accordance with the European Pressure Equipment Directive (PED). With their HDN certification they are allowed to weld hygienic and pressure systems.
