Since our formation, we have always had a prominent role in developing standards regulating the containment of gases in high pressure cylinders. We have member representatives on leading scientific and governmental standards committees.

We have influenced and participated in the setting of many new standards, in terms of improved design criteria and materials specifications, so enabling regulatory codes to be progressed.

We participate in:

• PVE 3, PVE 3/3 and PVE 3/7

We also provide a chairman of an ECMA Committee.
