The Black Forest Testlab Journey
Behind this chamber lies an unexpected and remarkable story of courage and entrepreneurship that we really need to share with you. On June 1, 2024, two young and ambitious technicians in Germany, Josip Brkic and Francesco Iemma, moved into the building housing their company, Black Forest Testlab, with the fully compliant CISPR-16 Anechoic Chamber shown in the photo, which we built for them.

Edwin: “This chamber used to be a shielded room in Singapore. It was stripped, and we installed horizontal and vertical stirrers. We work with a local team of installers, and I’m there to ensure everything will be delivered within the Comtest standards. I know all the possible challenges when upgrading a chamber that was initially built by another company. And that’s why we accomplished this project perfectly within two days.”
Returning to the office? “Not quite. Shortly after returning to The Netherlands, I was sent to Estonia for door and turntable maintenance. Next week, I’ll likely be in France, and at the beginning of the new year, I plan to be in the US. I work with various installation teams, and adapting to different cultures and mentalities can be challenging. So I set clear goals and communicated them with the team, and until now, I have always delivered my projects on time, on spec and budget.”
