“Security will enter a new stage in 2026, but we are prepared.” In a series of five posts, our specialists share trends and developments for 2026. This week, Vincent van de Vrie, from our team of Technical Consultants, highlights the growing demand for higher levels of protection.
“Pretesting will become more relevant, especially for electronics.” In a series of five posts, our specialists share trends and developments for 2026. This week, Marc Le Roy, from our team of Technical Consultants, emphasises the benefits of pre-testing for OEMs.
Our services include maintenance and validated testing. We recommend that both are executed by authorized personnel only. Our expert teams can perform preventive maintenance on RF-shielded doors, mode-stirrer systems, and positioning equipment such as turntables. We also offer validation services to see if your EMC test chamber or RF-shielded room still functions within its intended limits and avoiding unexpected down-time or product recalls at the same time.

A shielded room can perform conducted emission and immunity EMC measurements, eliminating harmful external influences, leading to more accurate and consistent test results. Being a Faraday cage, a shielded room will not only improve test results but will also form an excellent aid in protecting information and essential hardware. Comtest can assist governments, the military, financial institutions, and large corporations in protecting what matters most in critical situations. We offer the highest quality, sensitivity, and security before, during and after working with you.

According to our welding specialist Sebastiaan Koopmans, finishing an RF-shielded door requires special skills: “A regular household door fits into a wooden or metal frame. The ‘knives’ on our doors need to fit exactly into the copper ‘fingers’ of the door frame after welding the parts together. Therefore, they must be sharp but not too sharp to wear the copper fingers. Just like a good kitchen knife. I test the welding edges of the door knives manually but safely: when they feel smooth enough, they get my green light.”
His working method may require some extra work, but it pays off.
Sebastiaan: “Maybe I’m a bit obsessed with perfection, but sometimes I’m shocked by the parts made by other companies. And especially with tempest shield rooms, the isolation at the door can make the difference between success or failure.”
The next time you visit our production facility, ask for Sebastiaan. He would love to show you the difference between good and great.
