TPED (Transportable Pressure Equipment Directive)
14th January 2008
In the context of its global goal of improving safety in transport, the European Union has issued in 1999 the Directive 1999/36/EC to enhance safety with regard to transportable pressure equipment approved for the inland transport of dangerous goods by road and by rail.
The Directive aims simultaneously to ensure the free movement of such equipment within the Community, including the placing on the market and repeated putting into service and repeated use aspects.
