PIA Service BV invested some time ago in building knowledge and expertise in the field of NIS2 and cybersecurity. Two engineers have been trained to help customers translate this abstract legislation into practical actions and to technically secure their systems.

Panel building according to UL standards is often seen as “just another standard,” but in practice it requires a completely different way of designing, building, and documenting. At PIA Service, we work extensively for the North American market and know better than anyone that UL goes far beyond a certification mark on a nameplate.

Recently, we published an article about the design and construction of UL panels in general. PIA Service is certified for the design and manufacturing of UL panels in accordance with both UL 508A and UL 698A standards.

A few months ago, we spoke with ethical hacker Martijn and Yannick, both Certified NIS2 Directive Lead Implementers at PIA Service BV, about cyber security in general and the impact of NIS2 in particular. How is the industry progressing? We ask John de Krijger, Director at PIA Service.

At the beginning of this year, PIA officially became a member of the NIDV, the Dutch Industries for Defence and Security. It’s no secret that in the coming years, major efforts will be required to strengthen the armed forces, and PIA Service is proud to contribute its part. We spoke with John de Krijger, Managing Director of PIA Service BV.

This catchy statement was the subtitle of the annual EPLAN Day, held on May 23rd in Arnhem. We reflect on the event with Daniel van der Woude, the EPLAN Genius 2025 and Engineering Manager at PIA Service BV.

The United States currently plays a central role in media coverage. Daily reports cover import tariffs, regulations, and other agreements that affect how we conduct business with America. One regulation that has been relevant for a long time is the UL standard, which plays a major role in systems exported to the U.S.

Explosive environments require strict safety measures. But what does that mean in practice? We asked Bas Scholtens, project manager at PIA Service, who has specialized knowledge of ATEX.

The NIS2 will become effective in the middle of this year and will have a major impact on the way in which networks and processes within industrial automation are designed. In the article below, PIA Service explains what is going to change and how it can help.

With our close-knitted team PIA has developed into a powerful full-fledged industrial automation company in the last couple of years. We have achieved this by investing continuously in knowledge and quality. Which is a must because the demand for knowledge and technical personnel keeps growing in the Dutch industry and at machine builders.
