CEPA hits 300!

IPM CEPA 300-1Mid-April saw the three hundredth pest control company in Europe awarded CEPA Certified(R). This milestone was reached by Integrated Pest Management Ltd of Enfield Lock in Middlesex.

MD Gareth Turner said “we are very proud to join this elite band of European pest control companies, and we’ve already started promoting our success to our existing and potential customer base across the South East of England. Alongside our other accreditations such as BPCA Membership, SafeContractor, ConstructionLine and ISO 9001/14001, we think CEPA Certified will unlock doors for us, and allow us to benchmark against other professional pest controllers in tenders and specifications”

Currently, there are almost 90 UK pest control companies accredited to the standard, with all BPCA Members going through a free third-party audit to BS EN16636 (the standard underpinning CEPA Certified) by the end of June this year.
