History

The story of TÜV Nord Group has its roots in the traditional boiler inspection associations founded by the industry, which in 1869 voluntarily undertook to begin monitoring and ensuring the operational safety of boilers. Gradually, the government gave the DÜV, later known as the TÜV additional safety-related tasks, such as the regular inspection of automobiles, still a watchword for road safety in Germany today.
