New certification management functionality
As of the fall 2015 Pipeson offers a certification management functionality as a part in the Pipeson Data Manager 2.0. Kiwa, being experts in the area of certification, played an integral role in the development of the new functionality.

Comment by Pipeson, November 9, 2023: In the fall of 2023 Pipeson launched the Pipeson Certification Manager, which is 100’% focused on the management of product certifications. Kiwa continues to contribute with their expertise in our ongoing developments.
