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.
