Fortunately, our lives do not revolve solely around work. We also indulge in leisure activities to
 balance things out and for relaxation purposes. Sport and exercise are keys in this respect as they foster good health, fun and "joie de vivre".
In many locations where such leisure activities are pursued, man and technical interact - on playgrounds, at the swimming pool, in fitness studios, on the go-cart track etc.
TÜV Rheinland Product Safety GmbH's task in this context is to ensure these man-technical
encounters meet optimum safety and quality standards and guarantee
risk-free leisure-time enjoyment! And so that it's plain for everyone
to see - by means of our GS or Q Marks which identify technical
products or systems as being "TÜV-approved".
Are you a user or manufacturer of such equipment? If so, contact us,
and we will help you achieve enhanced safety in leisure and sport.

 Training to Make Your Business a Success
Your company is a trend-setter and makes fitness equipment of a functionally and physiologically-demanding standard?
Then let your customers see it
in the form of the quality mark from TÜV Rheinland Product Safety (TRPS)
and the IPN Institut für Prävention und Nachsorge GmbH.
TRPS and IPN have together developed a test programme which takes account of current market developments and assesses both the safety and the functionality of fitness equipment. Details of the programme are as follows:
- Ergonomic design of padding, stabilizing and positioning devices to
allow better body posture.
- Equipment set to match axes and paths of motion in accordance with
individual anthropometric requirements so as to prevent false physical
exertion.
- Reproducible equipment settings for all individually adaptable devices in order to ensure permanent, correct setting/positioning.
- Physiological amplitudes of movement and consideration of natural motion sequences, so as to
mobilize the resources of the complete loco motor system.
Finely adjustable load stages and load control for individually metered strain, suitable for all target groups.
- Physiological resistance over the entire path of motion, geared to the specific requirements of the
loco motor
system.
- Comfortable, user-friendly handling to allow undivided concentration
on the actual training.
Safety and Quality - TÜV-tested
The quality mark on your fitness
equipment is both a navigation and decision-making aid for your customers
through the wide variety of equipment on offer. Users too can convince
themselves at a glance of the special features offered by your equipment.
Your key to more marketing success!
