OSLO, Norway, May 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — DNV, the independent assurance and risk management provider, has been recognized by the European Commission as a notified body for the certification of devices under the European Union’s In Vitro Diagnostic Regulation (IVDR). The designation increases capacity for certifying in vitro diagnostic devices and providing access to the EU market.

DNV offers device manufacturers a fully digital process for faster, more transparent device certification.

In vitro diagnostics (IVDs) are tests used to determine a person’s health status. They range from pregnancy and cholesterol tests through to HIV screening, COVID-19 tests and cancer marker detection. The safety and effectiveness of such devices is therefore crucial to public and personal health.

The EU introduced the IVDR in 2017, replacing its previous In Vitro Diagnostic Directive 98/79/EC (IVDD). The IVDR provides a regulatory basis for establishing the safety and effectiveness of new IVD devices. A certificate of compliance with the IVDR will be required for most IVD device to be sold in the EU. Devices are classified according to their risk to public and personal health. Class D devices, with the highest risk, will require IVDR certification from May 2025. Class C and Class B will require IVDR certification from May 2026 and May 2027 respectively.

The designation of DNV as an IVDR notified body brings greater capacity to the certification market, helping more device manufacturers access the EU market.

To further streamline access to market, DNV has a fully digital certification process. Manufacturers will be able to manage certification documents online and track compliance status in real time via a secure digital platform, for faster certification with greater transparency.

“DNV is looking forward to working with manufacturers of all classes of IVD devices to help them access the EU market,” said Cecilie Gudesen Torp, Global Director Medical Services, Supply Chain & Product Assurance at DNV. “Being in the top 5 notified bodies for medical device certification, we offer extensive expertise and technical competence. Our global team of auditors, technical assessors and clinicians are ideally positioned to deliver efficient certification with uncompromising reliability to reduce risks and help manufacturers get to market faster.”

GLASGOW, Scotland, May 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The Dalmore Single Malt Whisky announce their collaboration with architect Ben Dobbin of renowned practice Foster + Partners for the third chapter of The Dalmore Luminary Series, which shines a light on the worlds of whisky making artistry and architectural design.

L-R: Richard Paterson OBE, Master Distiller, The Dalmore with Luminary No.3, Ben Dobbin of Foster + Partners and Gregg Glass, Master Whisky Maker, The Dalmore, pictured with The Dalmore Luminary 2025 Edition – The Rare – at V&A Dundee

Curated in partnership with V&A Dundee, Scotland’s Design Museum, this Edition is a co-creation between Ben Dobbin, whose projects include Apple Park and the revitalisation of the Transamerica Pyramid, and The Dalmore’s renowned Whisky Makers, Gregg Glass and Richard Paterson OBE.

The Dalmore Luminary 2025 Edition – The Rare – is an extremely rare Single Malt Whisky Aged 52 Years, held in a specially designed decanter, housed within a bespoke sculpture, designed by Dobbin.

This Edition is rooted in creative flow and precision, qualities shared by Dobbin and The Dalmore’s makers.

Dobbin’s extraordinary sculpture sees the whisky appear almost suspended in time, a fine example of tensegrity. Using this approach, Dobbin designed a dynamic, bold and perfectly balanced asymmetric sculpture, made of bronze, featuring dramatic waves and rods.

The Dalmore were equally exacting when creating the exceptionally rare whisky, taking inspiration from Dobbin’s personal tastes, whilst demonstrating their artistry.  

The Dalmore Luminary Series No. 3 follows acclaimed collaborations with Kengo Kuma and Maurizio Mucciola, and last year with Melodie Leung of Zaha Hadid Associates.

Ben Dobbin, Luminary No.3 and Senior Partner at Foster + Partners said: “Collaborating with The Dalmore has been absolutely fascinating. Technically, it has been a much more precise – yet creative process than I imagined. Spending time at their distillery really shaped my design process and I wanted to bring to life our shared sense of place, materiality, and how our worlds bridge. This has been an authentic, true partnership, which I am immensely proud of.”

Richard Paterson OBE of The Dalmore adds: “This collaboration perfectly adds to The Luminary Series, demonstrating a totally different dimension of what can be achieved when creative talents from different, yet complementary fields, unite.”

Gregg Glass of The Dalmore adds: “Meeting Ben was a true meeting of minds. There are actually many similarities between whisky making and architecture, both being a very iterative process, but striving to create something that stands the test of time.”

The Dalmore Luminary 2025 Edition – The Rare will be offered at auction via Sotheby’s Hong Kong, closing 16^th May, with 100% of proceeds donated to V&A Dundee.
