Services FAQ

Do I need ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 for R2v3?

You need a certified EH&S management system, and we recommend ISO 14001 with ISO 45001 because those certificates are recognized worldwide and across industries. A certified quality management system is needed only for test and repair or brokering.

Do you issue the R2 certificate?

No. An accredited R2 certification body audits you and issues the certificate; we prepare you for it.

Do you offer remote audits?

No. Our audits are always carried out at your facility; we don't offer remote or hybrid audits.

Is the certification guaranteed?

Yes: Guaranteed Certification within the first attempt.
