Certification Management Limited (CML) was established in June 2013. Offering a complete range of compliance services, we are an EU Notified Body (No 2503) for ATEX EU/2014/34. This is supported by our UKAS accreditation (No 8175) to IEC 17025 and IEC 17065 and our full scope of accreditation allows us to issue any type of certificate. Appointed in 2014 we are also an IECEx Certification Body (ExCB) and test laboratory (ExTL) with the full scope of standards.
In line with our growth we maintain the right technical mix and number of staff and this has grown from the initial 2 founding directors to 24 including 15 engineers and 5 laboratory technicians. A vital part of our growth is played by our large laboratory capacity with highly accurate and high quality equipment.
Our first ATEX and IECEx certificates were issued in September 2013 and April 2014 respectively and we have issued over 1100 certificates to date.
