Control Union broadens ISO certification scope through agreement with SBcert

Control Union has signed a Master Service Agreement (MSA) with SBcert – Scandinavian Business Certification, a Swedish certification body (CB) specializing in ISO standards. The partnership was signed by Udi Gabay, Control Union Certifications, and Peter Hallberg, SBcert, during Biofach in Nuremberg.

The collaboration between the two organizations started 18 months ago in Finland and is now being expanded with a global agreement covering all Control Union certification offices globally.

SBcert are accredited by SWEDAC, a member of the IAF. The breadth of SBcert’s accreditation allows Control Union to extend its ISO certification offerings, including ISO 9001, 45001, 14001, and 27001.

Johan Maris, CEO at Control Union, said: “We are delighted to have signed this MSA with SBcert and to now be able to offer a wide range of ISO certifications on a global basis”.

“Being ISO certified offers considerable benefits to organisations, from improved efficiency and process, enhanced reputation, customer satisfaction and effective risk management. This agreement ensures we are best placed to support clients globally though the ISO certification process”.

“ISO 27001, in particular, is becoming increasingly popular, with many large companies requiring suppliers to obtain this certification to work with them.”
