Required certifications and qualifications for industrial vehicle repair workshops

Required certifications and qualifications for industrial vehicle repair workshops

By law, industrial vehicle repair workshops must have a series of professional certifications and qualifications. In addition, it is essential to have staff qualified in Occupational Risk Prevention (ORP) and with technical knowledge.

List of certifications for an industrial vehicle workshop

Here are some of the certifications and training that an industrial vehicle workshop must have.

Industrial Activity Register

In order to guarantee compliance with the powers of supervision and control of the Public Administrations in industrial matters, any entity that obtains, repairs, maintains, transforms or reuses industrial products must register the details of its activity, some of which are public, such as those relating to the entity and its establishment(s).

As it is a basic certification, a company that lacks registration is acting illegally.

Environmental regulations

Environmental regulations are the set of legal provisions that apply to the care and protection of the environment.

These regulations are mainly aimed at the fight against pollution and climate change, the protection of nature and biodiversity and the management of water and waste.

Vehicle repair shops, both passenger car and industrial, have to comply with these regulations and a special environmental licence for this activity.

Certification for tank repair and modification

On the other hand, it should be noted that there are numerous certifications required by law for infrastructures, as established by the European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road (ADR).

The repair and modification of tanks requires specific certification, established by Royal Decree 948/2003, which aims to regulate the minimum conditions that must be met by facilities for the internal washing, degassing and depressurisation of dangerous goods tanks, as well as workshops for the repair or modification of the aforementioned tanks.

Consequently, if you are involved in the transport of liquids, we can take care of repair and maintenance. This is essential, because not all workshops have this certification.

Pressure Equipment Regulation

Regulation that governs all aspects of the design, manufacture, repair, modification and periodic inspection of pressure equipment to be followed by industrial vehicle repairers. This regulation also applies to vehicle tanks.

Welding Processes and Welders Approval Code

It aims to define the steps to be followed by welders, duly approved, to guarantee their safety and to establish minimum quality standards in all processes.

Metrological Control Register

It stipulates the requirements for industries that manufacture, import, market or lease measuring instruments subject to metrological control. At Consman we are registered with the RCM to guarantee the calibration of the vehicles we repair.

Certification for NGV and hydrogen vehicles

This is the most recent certification and, for this reason, it has not yet been obtained by the majority of workshops in the sector. Not surprisingly, at Consman we have the certification provided by the UNE 60637 standard, which establishes the requirements to be met by workshops that work with this type of vehicle, with which we can take care of their repair and maintenance.

Industrial vehicles, for their repair and maintenance, require workshops with qualified staff and durable facilities. Are you looking for a reliable workshop for your industrial vehicle or bus?
