Realise fun experiences with safety

The leisure park industry has a multi-faceted challenge of providing fun. For the daredevils in its customers, fun can come in the form of faster, higher and more thrilling rides. For the parents, fun is seeing the smiles on their children face with the reassurance that the rides are child-friendly. Above all, fun can only be achieved with safety. TÜV SÜD provides the leisure park industry with a specialized and unique suite of services that enable them to maintain their competitiveness without compromising safety.

From the initial conceptual and design stage, we enable our customers to realise their creative ideas with the use of kinematics and computer simulations and support them to analyse the risk factors. We inspect, test and monitor the quality of manufactured parts, assemblies and whole ride systems during manufacturing and before final assembly to improve the quality, safety, and reliability. Before the rides can be put in operations, our experts carry out acceptance tests with sophisticated test procedures to measure speed, accelerations and tensile strain of the ride. To maintain the safety of rides in operations, our experts carry out periodic testing and inspection.

TÜV SÜD’s experience in quality and safety assurance of amusement park and rides has been accumulated from more than 80 years of specialisation in the field. Our expertise is backed by industry best practices and client case studies from our work in Europe, USA and Asia. Work with TÜV SÜD today to take care of all your safety needs while you focus on the fun part.
