F-Gas Company Certification

From 4 July 2009 it became a legal requirement for all businesses that install, maintain or service stationary refrigeration, air-conditioning and/or heat pump equipment containing or designed to contain F-Gas refrigerants to obtain an F-Gas Company Certificate.

By 4 July 2011 all businesses must hold a Full Company Certificate. If your business has missed the deadline, apply now for a Stationary Equipment Qualification Company Certificate (Full Certificate), before enforcement checks catch up with you.

To obtain a Full company certificate, businesses must:

  • Employ sufficient numbers of personnel holding a full personnel qualification to cover expected volume of in-scope activities; and
  • Have the necessary tools and procedures for the personnel to carry out the in-scope activities that require certification

If you have not already applied for a Company Certificate you should do so immediately, without further delay. It is now a criminal offence to carry out the above activities without a Company Certificate.

You can use this site to apply and pay on-line for a Company Certificate.
