Responding to customers
Our customers aren’t interested in red tape and
complicated paperwork. They simply want to get
their product to market. With the right help, this
can be achieved in the shortest possible time.
worldwideWithin the industry we have an enviable track
record for our professionalism, product knowledge and
technical expertise. Our focus is to deliver
exceptionally high levels of customer service by
employing highly qualified staff and scientists.
At INSPEC, we appreciate that every customer is
different. You may be looking for bespoke testing
facilities, access to new markets, or simply want a quick
and uncomplicated route to product certification. We
have the resources and the flexibility to cater for all
types of customers, large or small.
It’s about providing the service you want as
effectively as possible.
INSPEC International is the world’s leading independent
organisation for the testing and certification of all types
of personal protective equipment (PPE).
Simply give us your product and we will provide an
easy, efficient and reputable solution to getting it CE
marked. Both our testing and certification departments
are accredited by the United Kingdom Accreditation
Service (UKAS).
Our job is to check compliance, help to resolve any
issues that may arise, streamline the process and reduce
paperwork to a minimum.
As well as being a Notified Body for the European
PPE Directive, we are accredited to certify quality
systems against ISO9001. Our assessment service is also
recognised in America.
Our reach extends into Asia Pacific where we operate
an INSPEC office to provide you with a local service.
This global network means we are in a unique
position to offer our customers a complete package of
services for accessing international markets.
We are not tied to a government department or trade
association, so we take a less bureaucratic approach to
delivering our testing and certification services.
As an independent organisation we understand the
commercial realities our customers face and their need
to get products to market as quickly as possible within
a regulatory framework.
both of these markets. We also provide assessment of
quality systems to ISO 9001:2000 and the American
National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards.
Our ability to report on such a wide range of
standards can be of great benefit to you when
expanding into new markets around the world. We can
carry out a single combined assessment that covers all
the standards under consideration. This is a lot simpler
and more cost-effective than dealing with several
different laboratories and certification bodies.
All our certification services are supported by
extensive international product testing facilities.

Certification offers our customers an opportunity to
gain access to worldwide markets, promote the quality
of their products and give their customers’ confidence
in the manufacturing processes.
certificationAn INSPEC certificate provides you with worldwide
recognition for your products and systems.
You can benefit from certificates that are accepted
and respected all over the world – something we have
worked at for a number of years so that you can reap
the rewards.
Having achieved accreditation as a certification
body for the ISO 9000 quality management system
standards in the early 1990s, we became one of the
first Notified Bodies for the European PPE Directive.
Our range of certification services has grown steadily
over the past 17 years along with our reputation. With
INSPEC, you get the job done properly.

marking of all categories of PPE under articles 10, 11A
and 11B of the Directive.
We carry out type-examinations, annual testing and
audits of finished product quality control systems for all
types of PPE. Send us your technical documentation
and product samples and we will do the rest.
Indeed, our certification service extends to
applications for ‘Wheelmarking’ of PPE that fall under
the Marine Equipment Directive.
In addition to our European certification services,
we can help you access international markets in
America and Asia Pacific.
We have agreements with the Safety Equipment
Institute (SEI) in the USA and with SAI Global in
Australia to assist in the certification of PPE destined for
clients in their product development. We welcome
visits from clients, whether it be just to improve
understanding of the testing, or to witness specific
testing of their products.
Our specialists have an in-depth knowledge of the
legislation, standards and certification programs in the PPE
sector. Our clients benefit from the comprehensive and pro-
fessional advice that the INSPEC team are able to provide.

we have developed a great understanding of the
equipment needed to operate to consistently high
standards. In addition to producing equipment
