ECM-Regulation
ERC takes one of the leading positions among the evaluation of entities in charge of maintenance for freight wagons (Regulation (EU) No 445/2011).

Thanks to our many years' experience in the homologation-procedurs of railway vehicles we know that a close collabaration with an engineering company is vital from the early development stage to the ultimate fine tuning.

Please contact us - ERC will support you from the very first beginning and will assist you during the project.
