National and international accreditations for testing and certification across key sectors.
1) Which standard applies to my product ?
It depends on the product and its intended use. For instance, safety footwear typically falls under EN ISO 20345; protective clothing frequently refers to EN ISO 13688; for chemical compliance, REACH regulation requirements apply. It is crucial to refer to the current edition of the standards and any related normative references.

2) How long does the certification process take ?
The required timeframe varies based on specific needs and project responsiveness. Our team works closely with your company to optimise every phase, ensuring continuous support aimed at minimising technical laboratory and assessment times.
CIMAC’s goal is to partner with you with maximum efficiency to reach the finish line as quickly as possible, adapting our internal procedures to meet your urgent deadlines and ensure a rapid outcome.
3) What samples or documents do I need to send ?
The list of required materials depends entirely on the type of test or certification requested. However, our team of experts will provide comprehensive assistance to pinpoint exactly what is needed.
We will support you in preparing every necessary detail to speed up the process, ensuring the best possible result in the shortest timeframe.
4) What is the difference between laboratory testing, certification, and accreditation ?
As a CIMAC Certification Body, our role is to simplify these concepts to accelerate your journey. Testing verifies product performance, certification officially attests to compliance with standards, and accreditation (via Accredia) guarantees the authority and reliability of our operations.
We offer comprehensive support to coordinate these steps synergistically, reducing bureaucratic delays and ensuring you achieve your certification goals as quickly as possible.
