SAI Global Product Certification offers a number of certification schemes tailored for personal protective equipment products. These certification services include:
StandardsMark™ certification is offered by SAI Global for a large number of personal protective equipment products for example, eye and hearing protectors, personal flotation devices (pfd’s), buoyancy aids, safety footwear, gloves, vests, sunglasses, protective clothing, diving suits, knee protectors, and many more.
CE Program – Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Directive 89/686/EEC is offered to those selling their personal protective equipment products in the European Union. SAI Global’s certification scope covers all personal protective equipment.
Second Party Inspections and Assessments are based on the requirements of our clients, as opposed to a specific Standard. The compliance can be to a process or to a product, against an agreed specification. The purpose of a second party inspection and assessment is to provide the customer with objective evidence of compliance to a specification, as agreed between customer and supplier.
Laboratory Recognition is offered to those laboratories which do not carry ILAC member accreditation for a specific standard and/or test method. These laboratories can be added to the SAI Global Recognised Laboratory Listing following an assessment of their test facilities to the specified standard and/or test method. The laboratory itself must also be able to demonstrate conformity to ISO/IEC 17025 in the test methods that will form the basis of the test report(s) supplied to SAI Global.
