Have you ever wondered what PED compliance is as related to investment casting? It is actually quite simple, yet very important. PED is an acronym for Pressure Equipment Directive, and compliance is required in the European Union (EU). Valves, pumps, and other pressure-bearing equipment utilized in the EU must comply with strict production standards. To demonstrate compliance, the equipment must have the CE mark prominently displayed. PPCP is certified PED through Hartford Steam Boiler International and is audited regularly to ensure strict compliance. View PED. https://ppcpinc.com/pressure-equipment-directive-ped
