About us
Who We Are
Baltic Control® is an independent inspection and certification company with a strong reputation across international markets. Our mission is to ensure compliance, transparency, and safety wherever global trade, logistics, agriculture, energy, recycling, and maritime transport intersect.
We provide reliable inspection services, advanced laboratory testing, and comprehensive certification solutions. Acting as an impartial and trusted partner between producers, traders, and end customers, we give all parties confidence that products, processes, and supply chains meet applicable regulatory requirements and contractual obligations.
From the Port of Aarhus to a Global Presence
Our story began in 1980 at the Port of Aarhus, Denmark, one of Northern Europe’s most important logistics hubs. It was here that the vision of creating a flexible, highly specialized, and fully independent inspection company was born.
While our roots remain firmly Scandinavian, the operational heart of Baltic Control® is today located in Poland. From our operational hub in Gdynia, we coordinate inspection, testing, and certification activities across international markets, combining Scandinavian values of quality, independence, and transparency with the agility and efficiency of one of Europe’s key logistics regions.
Over the years, we have continuously expanded our operations, invested in new technologies, strengthened our laboratory capabilities, and built an extensive international network. Today, Baltic Control® operates on a truly global scale
