Leading in Chromium-6 certification

Certification

Chromium-6

Chromium-6 is a metal that after exposure, over time, can lead to serious health issues in the form of cancer or an adverse effect on reproduction. Chromium-6 is also known as a CMR substance: Carcinogenic, Mutagenic, Reprotoxic. Additional obligations are placed on working with CMR substances.

Benefits of certification

  • Demonstrate as an organisation that you work safely and in accordance with applicable protocols

  • Show that you place great importance on the health of your employees and the safety of the environment and ecosystem

  • Qualify for projects that are awarded only to companies with a Chromium-6 certificate

What are the reasons for obtaining a Chromium-6 certificate?

Chromium-6 has presented significant challenges in recent years, with extensive remediation and renovation projects being delayed due to the absence of clear regulations on the maintenance, cleaning, and removal of materials containing this hazardous substance. As the number of Chromium-6 cases continues to rise, the Chromium-6 certificate has become an essential asset, providing assurance of compliance and safety in handling affected materials.

Normec and the Chromium-6 certificate

Normec is the market leader in issuing Chromium-6 certificates. Together with SGS Search, TÜV Netherlands and several remediation companies, we were at the basis of the certificate and the development of safe work protocols. Choosing a Chromium-6 certificate from Normec means choosing competence and quality.
