Functional Safety for Agricultural and Off-Highway Machinery

Ensure compliance with ISO 25119 or ISO 19014 – and reduce risk across your development lifecycle.

Build Safer Machinery – with Confidence

As agricultural and off-highway vehicles become smarter and more automated, meeting standards like ISO 25119 or ISO 19014 has become essential for ensuring your machinery performs safely and reliably.

At HORIBA MIRA, we help manufacturers navigate these complex safety standards with practical engineering expertise, process templates, and tailored consultancy that accelerates compliance and reduces the risk of safety failures, recalls or delays to market.

Why Functional Safety Matters in Agriculture and Off-Highway Sectors

  • Increasing system complexity – with more software, sensors and automation
  • Safety regulations such as ISO 25119 (functional safety of control systems in agricultural machinery)
  • Equipment is operating in harsh environments – where failure can pose risks
