Statutory Requirements for Cranes in Germany
Meet the legal requirements for your cranes with the help of our approval services for Germany
Manufacturers of (mobile) cranes need an approval, or CE mark, for their cranes if they are to be imported to Europe. We can help you fulfil all necessary procedures and ensure your product meets all the relevant legal requirements in Germany. We can also take care of initial and periodical crane inspections. There is no need for an initial inspection if the crane is “ready to use” – as for mobile cranes – and if a CE mark has already been issued. However, a subsequent yearly inspection is nevertheless required. In addition, every four years your crane needs to be inspected by an DGUV or BG recognized expert (German insurance companies).We can conduct a thorough examination in order to determine the operating performace of your crane whilst in service, at your facility or a construction site. As an independent third-party company we are your perfect partner for crane inspection and certification services .
