Applus+ Certification in brief

Applus+ Certification is an independent and impartial entity.

Applus+ Certification is an independent and impartial certification body. Applus+ Certification is part of the Applus+ Group, one of the world’s leading testing, inspection and certification companies. Applus+ employs more than 26,000 people, with a presence in over 70 countries.

We help our clients to refine their business activities and demonstrate their commitment to excellence and ongoing improvement to their own clients. With our team of expert auditors, we certify to the key international standards in the fields of quality (ISO 9001), the environment (ISO 14001), occupational health and safety (ISO 45001), information security (ISO 27001) and sustainability and climate change (emissions reduction). We also certify to a wide range of national, sectoral (BRC, IFS, GLOBALG.A.P., IATF 16949) and specific standards.

Thanks to our extensive experience as a certification body, we can draw up customised standards for the evaluation of suppliers and carry out second-party audits to assess their compliance.

We also regularly organise technical workshops and training events on the main international norms and standards in order to inform our clients and other professionals working in the sector about the standards and any updates to them.

In accordance with accepted practice, we do not provide certification services and consultancy services to the same client for the same management system. Similarly, our training sessions aim to provide a generic overview of the standards, including how they are audited and certified, and not guidance on their implementation within a specific company.
