Product certification

Before entering onto market, for many products it is essential to obtain product certificate from an inspection body, such as Control Union Finland Oy.

Before a product can be certified and marketed, an inspection body will assess that the product meets certain preordained standards. Conformance of the product and its manufacturing process will be checked during initial assessment carried by the inspection body. Initial testing of the product might be also required before a product certificate is granted. After initial assessment, conformance of the product and its manufacturing process will continue with internal and external quality assurance.

Preordained standards and other documentation for requirements are followed during product assessments. All necessary requirements for the product are defined in the standards and documentation, which are used to ensure product conformance in each intended use case.
