Kiwa Nederland B.V., one of the most recognised international certification bodies, has signed an Agreement of Test Laboratory Acceptance with INNOVA.

This agreement, effective from September 18, 2025, certifies that INNOVA laboratories operate in full compliance with the stringent requirements of the EN-ISO/IEC 17025:2017 standard.

This recognition is a tangible guarantee of INNOVA’s commitment to the highest standards of quality and reliability.

• Certified Validity: The results of measurements carried out in INNOVA laboratories can be directly used by Kiwa for official certification purposes.
• Speed and Efficiency: The "time to market" for products is significantly reduced, eliminating the need to repeat tests already performed internally at third-party facilities.
• Absolute Accuracy: The agreement sets very strict maximum tolerances for performance data, such as a margin of only ±5.0% for COP and EER and ±2 dB for sound power level, demonstrating the high precision of our measurements.

The agreement covers a wide range of tests for heat pumps and air conditioners, in line with major European standards:

• EN 14511 (Conditions and test methods)
• EN 14825 (Seasonal performance and part load)
• EN 16147 (Domestic hot water)
• EN 12102-1 (Determination of sound power level)

This milestone represents a recognition of INNOVA’s commitment to innovation and quality in the HVAC sector.
