Installation company certifications

IMQ’s installation company certifications are intended to give stakeholders full confidence that the certified business:

  • operates in a proper professional manner, in accordance with the applicable standards and legislation;
  • uses certified personnel, in sufficient in numbers to cover the workload it takes on, with the aid of subcontractors if appropriate;
  • has a suitable structure (tools, equipment, vehicles, etc.) to ensure that it carries out its work properly;
  • uses appropriate procedures and instructions to control and coordinate the work it does.

Installation company certification is a usually voluntary and issued in accordance with the technical standards and other documents and regulations applicable to the business in question. In certain sectors, however, the law requires companies to hold certifications issued by accredited conformity assessment bodies. For example, this applies to companies that work with equipment containing fluorinated greenhouse gases (F-Gases).
