NSF Certification - Why is this important?
http://www.nsf.org/
Since 1944, NSF International, an independent, not-for-profit organization,
has been committed to making the world a safer place for consumers. Explore our
consumer website to learn more about NSF, our programs and services, and the
many ways we help consumers Live saferŪ every day
Credibility is what NSF Certification is all about.
NSF uses the terms "certified" or "listed" in connection
with a product, good, component, system, material, compound or ingredient
("Product"). A Product that is certified or listed means that NSF: (1)
reviewed the Product, most often through a sampling of the Product; (2)
determined at the time of the review that the Product complies with the relevant
NSF consensus standard and/or protocol ("Standard"); and (3) conducted
or will conduct (as more specifically set forth in the Standard) periodic audits
to review whether the Product continues to comply with the Standard. After NSF
certifies or lists the Product, NSF authorizes the manufacturer of the Product
to use the NSF Mark on or in connection with the sale, use or distribution of
that Product. The NSF Mark conveys that an independent, third-party organization
(NSF) has determined that the Product complies with the relevant Standard.
The NSF Mark can be found on millions of consumer, commercial, and industrial
products today. Products evaluated and certified by NSF International include
bottled water, food equipment, home water treatment products, home appliances,
plumbing and faucets, and even pool and spa components.
The next time you are shopping for a food or water-related product that may
potentially affect the health of you or your family, look to see if the NSF Mark
is on the product. This Mark is your assurance that the product has been tested
by one of the most respected independent certification companies in existence
today, NSF International.
No other independent testing programs require companies to comply with the
strict standards imposed by NSF and its product certification programs. From
extensive product testing and material analyses to unannounced plant
inspections, NSF is the only third-party testing organization to undertake a
complete evaluation of every aspect of a product's development before it can
earn our certification.
Most importantly for you, NSF Certification is not a one-time activity. We do
not just test a single model of a product and give it our okay. Our
certification programs require regular on-site inspections of the manufacturing
facilities. In addition, certified products are periodically re-tested against
the requirements of the most current version of the applicable national
standard. If for any reason a product fails to meet one or more of our
certification criteria, we will take whatever enforcement actions we deem
necessary to protect the public, including product recall, public notification,
or de-certification.
Please note that NSF does not rate or compare the products we certify. We
understand that each consumer has unique needs, so we developed our programs to
verify that each product we certify meets the requirements of the applicable
national standard. In addition, if a performance claim is being made for a
product, such as a water treatment device, we ensure that the product actually
is able to meet that claim.
