AC&E is founded
AC&E was founded in Verona as an independent testing and certification laboratory, serving Italian manufacturers seeking access to international markets.
AC&E opens in the US
AC&E expanded beyond Europe with its first North American base in New York, bringing certification, inspection, and field-evaluation services closer to manufacturers entering the U.S. market. The move marked the start of AC&E North America and our long-term commitment to supporting clients across the region.
Opening in the US
AC&E restructured its offering around a set of integrated core services — testing, certification, inspection, and engineering — delivered through a single point of contact. The shift let clients manage compliance across multiple markets and standards without coordinating separate providers.
