Case Study: How NSF Certification Gives Unox a Global Competitive Edge
Italian commercial oven manufacturer Unox relies on NSF certification for every product they launch. In North America, the NSF mark signals to health inspectors that equipment meets food safety requirements. In the other markets they serve, the NSF certification has become a core part of their product strategy, not just a compliance requirement.

The certification mark inspectors trust
When health inspectors evaluate commercial food equipment in North America, the NSF mark provides instant credibility. They can quickly and confidently trust it as independent verification that equipment meets FDA Food Code requirements, making inspections faster and accelerating Unox’s speed to market.
From compliance requirement to global value
Across 110 countries where they operate, Unox now certifies each new product with NSF, even where local regulations don’t require the certification. What began as a market‑entry step in 2010 has evolved into a global assurance of food safety and cleanability.
We believe that having the NSF mark across our entire product portfolio creates significant value for our customers. It demonstrates that our products not only fit perfectly in a HACCP-controlled environment, but also that they can be cleaned quickly and effectively, helping our customers save money and time.
