We can hardly believe it - the EPO Gatekeeper is already celebrating its 7th anniversary! It is an incredible moment for us to see how our device has been so well received in the market. We are proud to be the developers of such an advanced and smart ESD personnel tester that makes the daily work of many of our customers easier and digitizes ESD testing. Since our first Gatekeeper went into use for the first time, we have received a lot of positive feedback and are grateful every day that our device is convincing so many people.

In these seven years, we have achieved a great deal together with our customers. We have not only created a device, but a solution that revolutionizes ESD protection and changes the way ESD testing is carried out. We have managed to develop a device that is not only robust, but also flexible - a device that evolves with the requirements of digitalization and is always at our customers' side.

A big thank you goes to all our customers who have been with us since the beginning and have been eagerly awaiting the EPA Gatekeeper. Their support and trust in our product have motivated us to continue innovating and redefining the standard for ESD personnel testing devices. We would also like to thank every new satisfied customer who has integrated the Gatekeeper into their daily work routine - you are part of this great success!

Celebrate 7 years of success with us

To celebrate this significant milestone in a fitting manner, we have launched the "7 years of success - 7 weeks with 7 reasons for the EPO GATEKEEPER®" into being. Over the next seven days, we would like to give you in-depth insights into the world of the Gatekeeper, show you what makes our device so special, how we came up with the idea of revolutionizing ESD personnel testing and why we are so keen to advance ESD measurement and testing technology. You can expect exciting articles that will not only introduce you to the functions and advantages of the Gatekeeper, but also take a look behind the scenes of our development and innovations. We would like to show you how our device is shaping the future of ESD protection and why it is the perfect partner for your ESD tests.

We hope you enjoy exploring Gatekeeper and, of course, we look forward to your feedback, queries and exchanges with you.
