SI Cert

What SI Cert does

SI Cert Group is a privately-held third-party certification, inspection, and training body operating across Switzerland, Italy, and Greece, founded in 2004. The group comprises four legal entities: SI Cert S.A.G.L. (Swiss parent), SI Cert Italy S.r.l. (accredited inspection and certification entity), SI Cert Training Center S.r.l.s. (training arm), and SI Cert L.T.D. (Greek operations). SI Cert issues accredited certifications under management system standards (ISO 9001, 14001, 45001, 27001, 22000, 50001, 37001, 42001), product certifications for construction materials under EU CPR (as Notified Body n. 2989), professional certifications for BIM and energy roles, and performs Type A inspection services per UNI CEI EN ISO/IEC 17020 covering design verification, non-destructive weld testing, warehouse shelving audits, Industry 4.0 asset attestation, and workplace noise analysis.

The company holds accreditations from four authorities — Accredia (Italy), SAS (Switzerland), SAAS (USA), and ESYD (Greece) — and licensing partnerships with ISCC for carbon certification and Scuola Etica Leonardo for ESG ratings. Revenue derives from multi-year recurring certification cycles, one-time product conformity assessments, professional fees for inspection work, and training course delivery through the Training Center. Go-to-market combines enterprise field sales for large corporate certifications, inside sales for mid-market clients, and self-serve online booking for SMBs and individual professionals. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, with the company stating certificate issuance within one week of completed audits as a service-level differentiator. Notable certified clients include Huawei, Rizzani de Eccher, IVS Group, AGID, and Mastroberardino, spanning construction, food, technology, security, energy, and public administration sectors.
