Airbag / Pyrotechnics

Precision Testing for Safety-Critical Vehicle Components

Ensuring Reliable Deployment When It Matters Most

Airbag and pyrotechnic systems must perform precisely under defined conditions. We validate igniters, initiators, and control units in controlled, accredited test environments to ensure functionality, durability, and compliance with automotive requirements.

From development to series production, we provide traceable, standards-aligned results to support your approval processes.

Reliable validation. Documented performance.

Your Testing Partner for Airbag & Pyrotechnic Application

For safety-critical restraint systems, precision and control are essential. We provide accredited testing, secure handling of pyrotechnic components, and monitored execution to deliver reliable, reproducible results.

With structured coordination and clear, audit-ready documentation, we support your validation from development through production — helping you reduce risk, meet regulatory requirements, and release with confidence
