The documentation behind what we promise

For a B2B buyer, certifications are not a piece of paper for the wall. They are a measurable guarantee that processes, documentation and safety are in place before the product leaves our production in Denmark or Poland. That means fewer surprises in operation, easier approvals and a supplier that will still be there five years from now.

On this page, we go through each certification, what it covers and what it specifically means for your project — whether you are building data centers, supplying as an OEM or investing in green energy.

ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 — quality and environment, systematized

ISO 9001 is the international standard for quality management systems. For you, it means that we work according to documented, repeatable processes that improve quality, increase efficiency and strengthen competitiveness. Every job follows the same controlled flow — from requirements specification to delivery — so the result is predictable, no matter who on our team carries it out.

ISO 14001 is the standard for environmental management. It helps us identify, manage and continuously improve the company's environmental impact. This is relevant if your own organization has environmental requirements in its supply chain, or if you work on projects in green energy and BESS (battery energy storage systems), where sustainability is part of the business.

Anchored in the organization

Together, the two ISO standards ensure that both quality and the environment do not depend on individuals, but are anchored throughout the organization and its 70+ years of experience.

UL 508A and UL 891 — access to the North American market

If your equipment is to be sold or used in the USA and Canada, UL certification is often a requirement. SystemTeknik builds panels that can be certified to the relevant UL standards:

  • UL 508A: Industrial Control Panels — control panels for automation

  • UL 891: Switchboards — power distribution in larger installations

UL 508A confirms that our control panels have been tested and meet U.S. and Canadian safety standards. UL 891 similarly covers our switchboards for power distribution. Both come together in our dedicated UL panels, where it is important to note that UL-certified panels require UL-certified cables. If you have special requirements, we also build custom panels for specific industries.

IEC 61131-3 — standardized and maintainable PLC programming

IEC 61131-3 is the international standard for PLC programming languages. It ensures consistent and maintainable programming across platforms — so your code can be read, modified and taken over, regardless of the underlying brand.

Our programmers work according to the standard in all the relevant languages: Ladder (LAD), Structured Text (ST/SCL), Function Blocks (FBD/FB) and Sequential Function Chart (SFC). We program across Siemens, Allen Bradley, OMRON, Mitsubishi, ABB and FT Optix. This means you are not locked into a single supplier, and you avoid opaque code that only one person understands.

What it means for the customer

Certifications are only worth something if they create concrete value in your project. Here is how they make a difference in practice:

  • Easier approvals: UL 508A and UL 891 open the door directly to sale and use in the USA and Canada — you avoid having to go back and document everything from scratch

  • Predictable quality: ISO 9001 means you get the same documented process every time, with traceable documentation

  • Transferable code: IEC 61131-3 ensures that your PLC software can be maintained without depending on one particular person or platform

  • Environmental requirements in the chain: ISO 14001 covers your own documentation requirements for suppliers

Certified technicians

The certifications support our panel inspection, panel testing (component testing up to 6,300 A) and electrical panel replacement — performed by certified technicians.

What is the difference between UL 508A and UL 891?

UL 508A is the standard for Industrial Control Panels, typically control panels. UL 891 is the standard for switchboards used for power distribution. Both are safety standards required for the North American market in the USA and Canada.

Do UL-certified panels require special cables?

Yes. UL-certified panels require UL-certified cables. We take this into account from the start when we build UL panels for the USA/Canada market.

What does IEC 61131-3 mean for my PLC programming?

IEC 61131-3 is the international standard for PLC programming languages and ensures consistent, maintainable programming across platforms. We program in Ladder (LAD), Structured Text (ST/SCL), Function Blocks (FBD/FB) and Sequential Function Chart (SFC) on brands such as Siemens, Allen Bradley, OMRON, Mitsubishi, ABB and FT Optix.
