Test, certify or register your pipes and mechanical plumbing devices (including taps, valves, pipes, pumps, flexible connectors, etc.) in accordance with Italian regulations and programs, including Origin and Quality Control (OQC).
NSF offers testing, certification and registration services for the OQC registration scheme. Registration with OQC distinguishes quality products made in Italy through continuous verification and regular inspection.
As the third-party administrator of OQC, NSF verifies that all products comply with OQC guidelines. In addition to performing annual audits of your manufacturing facilities, we review quality, material safety and performance documentation.
We require validated third-party test reports to demonstrate your compliance with material safety and mechanical performance quality requirements (such as NSF/ANSI/CAN 61, NSF REG4, ACS or other international certifications). We also require proof that your products are made in Italy, according to our scheme.
The OQC product registration program includes but is not limited to the following product categories:
Products that comply with these standards bear the OQC registration mark. Recognized around the world, the OQC mark demonstrates that the products are made in Italy and meet the applicable sanitation, performance and quality requirements.
