Auto Translated Quote from DNVGL.it

"Last May 31, 2018, DNV GL announced that it had acquired 100% ownership of the EU notified body, DNV GL Nemko Presafe (Presafe), which previously was a joint venture with the test and certification company Nemko with based in Oslo."





"From January 2019 the visual identity of DNV GL Presafe AS is in line with that of the global organization DNV GL.





The change concerns only the visual identity, there is no change in the Notified Body, the staff, its processes or its procedures. The number of the notified body does not change .

This change does not in any way affect existing agreements or active certifications that our customers hold today.





The active certificates will be updated with the DNV GL visual identity at the next scheduled audit. In case you wish to anticipate the issue of the certificate with the new graphic layout, you can request it. Changing the certificate's visual identity also involves the adoption of Blockchain technology, with its exclusive security guarantee, which helps prevent certificate fraud and allows interested parties to verify the validity of certificates in real time."
