History

Baltic Control A/S was established in 1980 by Hugo Pedersen, at the port of Aarhus, Denmark, in order to offer control services in the agricultural sector, especially shiploads of grain and feed to the former Soviet Union and the DDR, where large quantities were shipped from Scandinavian ports on feeder vessels over the Baltic Sea - hence the name Baltic Control. The company quickly expanded to other regions and activities to what it is today; a truly global and recognized company operation in the testing inspection and certification (TIC) industry.

Baltic Control Certification A/S was established in May 2017, when the management of Baltic Control® decided to gather the certification activities in an independent company.

1. December 2020 Baltic Control® celebrated 40-year business anniversary. We have been through the archives and collected some highlight from the first 40 years as TIC service supplier. Please click here for at trip down memory lane of A/S Baltic Control Group Ltd.
