CH Precision: A Leading Company in the High End Audio Industry achieving excellence with Apave Certification

Apave Certification granted product certification to the 12 high end products made by CH Precision, a Swiss company specialising in the ultra high performance audio sector. In an interview with Apave, Rafael Leroy, CH Precision Certification Manager & Hardware Engineer, highlighted the numerous benefits they have experienced through certification from Apave Certification.

Access to a global market 

CH precision had been looking for a certification company that could certify all of their products for world-wide distribution with a cost effective and time efficient approach to product certification. The internationally recognised certifications provided by Apave Certification opened up new opportunities for CH Precision in the global world of high-end audio. As these markets demand CB certificates for product importation, having certifications from a reputable organisation gives CH Precision access to new customers and a significant competitive edge.

“CH is now one of the very few audio companies whose products are fully certified to CB level. We are already seeing the benefits of that in terms of overseas orders into our target markets, a crucial contribution to the company's continued growth.” explained Florian Cossy, CH Precision CEO. 
The CB Scheme / Système OC relates to international standards for electrical and electronic products, ensuring those products conform to the expected operational and safety standards.

A true passport to product conformity, it makes the various international markets accessible, by obtaining several international certification marks through a one test protocol (reducing costs and associated delays by combining overlapping tests) creating a genuine ‘one-stop-shop’. The CB scheme also ensures full conformity with and access to the 54 countries that are members of IECEE (IEC System of Conformity Assessment Schemes for Electrotechnical Equipment and Components).

A time efficient approach

Working alongside Apave Certification, an independent subsidiary of the Apave Group, CH Precision was able to certify its products in less than a year.

“We chose Apave as, from the very first contact, discussions were positive and responsive. Once those discussions progressed and became far more detailed, it became clear that Apave's proposals were not just more affordable but also time-efficient, both things that were commercially very important to us.”  explains Rafael Leroy. 
“Working with the Apave team, we were able to certify all 12 of CH Precision’s extremely complex and advanced products to CB certification levels in less than a year”.
In the case of CH Precision, the benefits of product certification by Apave Certification, include efficiency, cost-effectiveness, access to new markets, and excellent customer service. By choosing Apave as their certification partner, CH Precision was able to streamline their certification process and enhance their market presence, ultimately driving their business growth and success in the high-end audio electronics industry.
