BM TRADA operates well established third party certification schemes for products, installation and maintenance services, personnel and grading.
Q-Mark and product marking including the UKCA/UKNI/CE marks helps you get your products to market and meet tender specification requirements.
Certification of your product tells your customers that it meets the requirements of a defined technical specification and that it has been produced within a third party audited Factory Production Control (FPC) system which includes procedures for isolating non-conforming product.
For complex and high performing products, confidence in their performance throughout the product life is critical. So, certification of those installing, repairing or maintaining the product is as important as testing and certification of the product itself.
