A Message from the CEO

Over the last sixteen years I have dedicated our business activity to empowering and supporting our clients as they work to navigate the complex regulatory environment of the United States and California. This activity has taken many forms, including lobbying efforts, development of new engine certification programs and various reporting and program management functions. Our company has evolved significantly from our initial inception, amassing clients, staff and institutional knowledge over time. Today ECO, Inc. is the world’s leading emissions certification firm. Our team is committed to providing unparalleled service and products that reflect our desire for excellence.
