We, Daniela, Thilo and Benedict, are the founders and CEOs of Certify. Together with our great colleagues, we combine over 75 years of industry experience. The three of us have known each other since 2013 and have since become a well-coordinated team.
In 2019 we decided to start our own business. We want to offer our customers solutions that are as fast and flexible as they want them to be. We have also made it our mission to prioritize fairness and transparency towards our customers. Our customers should be able to externalize all issues related to the EPR, relying completely on the results and advice. Because we know all too well how complicated it can be to implement the many duties and requirements.
