Product certification

The Product Certification, both voluntary or regulated, is an indispensable tool for companies wishing to demonstrate over time the quality and validity of their product.

When it is voluntary, it is a marketing and communication tool to differentiate themselves from the competition, when it is regulated, it becomes mandatory for access to regulated markets.

Obtaining a certified product is a complex process, developed in three phases:
  • Phase I: type tests to verify that the product conforms to national or international standards or, in their absence, with dedicated test protocols;
  • Phase II: evaluation of the processes and the quality system used by RACI to ensure the maintenance over time of the features on the sample submitted for type testing (manufacturing procedures, control, verification of testing equipment);
  • Phase III: once obtained the product certification and therefore the third party’s brand, third-party inspectors regularly verify that the company continues to apply the quality assurance procedures and to keep the test equipment efficiency and calibrated so that the certified products do not have undergone changes that may impact on their compliance and can be constructed consistently with the quality and safety standards that have allowed obtaining a product brand.
