In a sector where multiple inspection firms have emerged, such stakeholders must rely on bodies that are impartial and whose technical competence is verified, and that is what ISO17020:2012 is about. By becoming the first and currently the only internationally accredited company to conduct PV modules pre-shipment inspection, we at STS once again lead the pack and will hopefully inspire our peers to bring transparency to buyers and suppliers of PV modules.”
