Eurofins C Mark

What Eurofins C Mark does

Eurofins C Mark is a Netherlands-based laboratory and consultancy firm specializing in water safety and water quality testing services, headquartered in Deventer and founded in 2004. The company, operating as a subsidiary of Eurofins Scientific Group through the legal entity Eurofins Food & Feed Testing Netherlands Holding B.V., holds KIWA BRL 6010 certification for Legionella risk analysis and management plans for Dutch priority installations, alongside RVA (Raad voor Accreditatie) L602 accreditation for testing services. Its core digital platforms — Digitaal legionellabeheer (Digital Legionella Management) and Digitaal zwembadwaterbeheer (Digital Swimming Pool Water Management), the latter launched in September 2025 — provide 24/7 compliance dashboards, automated task assignment, incident registration, and auto-generated regulatory logbooks.

The company's service portfolio spans accredited water sampling and analysis for drinking water, swimming pool water, and process water; Legionella risk analysis and management plan development by BRL 6010 certified experts; air quality research (trichloramine per BAL-H15); backflow preventer (keerklep) inspection; cleaning and disinfection of installations; installation modifications; and a 'Totale Ontzorging' full outsourcing model for water safety and quality. Training and e-learning courses (covering daily pool water measurement, Legionella beheersen 1, and Zwemwaterwet/BAL-H15) form a secondary revenue stream. Underlying technology relies on the Eurofins network of accredited laboratories for sample throughput, combined with the proprietary digital platforms that increasingly serve as the customer interface.

Eurofins C Mark employs 51–100 staff and goes to market through direct B2B field sales, website-driven quote requests, phone/email inquiry, an email newsletter (Kennis Bulletin), and active participation in industry events such as ZwembadBranche Dag and Installatie Vakdagen. The customer base spans seven vertical segments — hotels and wellness, sports and recreation (swimming pools), municipalities and government, healthcare institutions and hospitals, real estate management, installation companies, and industrial firms — with primary revenue concentration in hospitality, swimming pool operators, and healthcare priority installations. Pricing is quote-based, blending professional services fees with the recurring subscription component introduced via the digital platforms.
