CEPA Certified
CEPA Certified is the European standard for the professional pest management industry, aligned with EN 16636. Developed by the Confederation of European Pest Management Associations (CEPA), it provides a guarantee of quality, safety, and hygiene. It is designed for pest management companies seeking to demonstrate professionalism. Control Union offers independent assessment against this standard, facilitating access to this recognised mark of excellence.

What is CEPA Certified?
CEPA Certified specifies the requirements and competences for pest management service companies, ensuring they meet the needs of clients from public authorities to private companies. Adherence to the EN 16636 standard provides security for both the service provider and their customers by guaranteeing a professional and safe service. This Integrated Pest Management certification demonstrates a responsible approach, enhancing a company’s reputation throughout Europe.
