The Swiss Association for Technical Inspections is a private, independent institution within Switzerland that monitors around 50,000 technical installations and equipment, more then 2,000 kilometres of natural gas and oil pipelines and 12,000 transportation tankers for both rail and road, as well as a large number of packaging types and compressed gas containers. It receives contracts from the Swiss federal government and the cantons on a mandate basis.
