atNorth Achieves ISO 9001 Certification for Quality Management

atNorth, a prominent player in the Nordic data center sector, has recently achieved certification under the ISO 9001:2015 standard, a globally recognized benchmark for quality management systems. This significant accomplishment underscores the company's ongoing commitment to providing superior quality services and fostering an environment of continuous improvement within its operations.

ISO 9001 is designed to drive continuous process enhancement by pinpointing inefficiencies, minimizing waste, and facilitating informed decision-making. The standard also establishes clear protocols for addressing complaints, thereby allowing for timely and effective resolution of any issues that arise.

To meet the stringent requirements of this certification, atNorth has enhanced its already robust quality management system. This improvement has led to more streamlined operational processes, better resource allocation, and strengthened risk management practices. These developments epitomize the business's dedication to adhering to industry regulations while perpetually advancing in line with its Quality Policy.

Janne Sigurdsson, Chief Sustainability and Compliance Officer of atNorth, expressed pride in this achievement, stating, "Our attainment of the ISO 9001 reflects our ongoing commitment to delivering consistent, customer-focused service. Our quality management system integrates seamlessly with our information security, environmental management, and health and safety processes - creating a strong foundation of process discipline that drives continuous improvement across our operations."

The commitment to quality was echoed by Arni H Kristinsson, Managing Director for BSI Iceland, who remarked on the evident level of management commitment, leadership, and employee engagement within the quality management system. He noted that the system is firmly becoming ingrained in the business culture, with effective blending of quality management practices into other operational aspects such as information security and environmental management.

In addition to ISO 9001, atNorth holds several other ISO certifications, including ISO 45001 for its Health and Safety Management System, ISO 27001 for its Information Security Management System, and ISO 14001 for its Environmental Management System. This extensive portfolio of certifications highlights atNorth's strategic focus on quality and compliance across various operational dimensions.

The announcement of this certification comes on the heels of atNorth receiving multiple industry accolades, including the 'Data Centre Design Project of the Year' at the Data Center Review Awards and the 'Sustainable Data Center Project of the Year' at the Danish Data Center Industry Awards. Furthermore, notable recognition for leadership within the company includes CEO Eyjólfur Magnús Kristinsson's ranking among DataCentre Magazine's 'Top 10 Data Centre Leaders in the UK & Europe 2025.'

atNorth's rigorous compliance measures, combined with its collection of prestigious awards, firmly establish it as a leader in operational excellence and a customer-first approach within the data center market. The company specializes in scalable high-density colocation and bespoke data center solutions tailored to meet the unique requirements of modern AI and high-performance workloads.

Headquartered in Reykjavik, Iceland, atNorth operates eight data centers throughout strategic Nordic locations, with plans for expansion including a new site in Ballerup, Denmark, set to open in 2025. The company is also working on two more facilities in Finland and Denmark, as well as a future mega site in Sweden's Sollefteå Municipality. This growth strategy, grounded in a commitment to renewable energy and advanced cooling technologies, positions atNorth as a responsible and innovative partner for businesses aiming to scale sustainably while minimizing environmental impact.
