Registration is the key

A quality initiative needs checks and balances in order to maintain its status. Applications for membership of the Zurich register will be assessed both technically and financially before being allowed to operate within the scheme. The process is painless and completely confidential. We won't keep you waiting too long before you are informed of the outcome.

A technical recommendation by your local authority will help to speed the process.
