Product Certification
CMI Certification provides third-party product certification services to verify that products meet applicable Australian, New Zealand, and international standards.
Product certification gives regulators, specifiers, and consumers confidence that a product has been rigorously assessed for safety, quality, and performance — and continues to meet those requirements over time.
At CMI, we believe certification should be clear, credible, and straightforward.
Certification you can trust.
What is Product Certification?
Product certification is an assessment process that confirms a product complies with defined technical standards and regulatory requirements.
Certification typically includes:
Review of test reports from accredited laboratories
Technical evaluation against applicable standards
Assessment of manufacturing controls and quality systems
Ongoing surveillance to ensure continued compliance
This process helps ensure certified products are safe, fit for purpose, and consistently manufactured.
Already certified?
Transfer your existing product certification to CMI and maintain continuity with minimal duplication.
Our Product Certification Scheme
CMI delivers product certification through its CMI ProdCert scheme, which operates in accordance with ISO/IEC 17065 (Type 5 certification).
CMI ProdCert provides a structured and impartial framework for certifying products against specific Australian, New Zealand, and international standards, supported by initial assessment and ongoing surveillance.
Products certified under the CMI ProdCert scheme are publicly listed for verification on the CMI register.
Marking of Product Certified Products
Certification marks play a critical role in identifying products that have been independently certified.
Applying the appropriate certification mark demonstrates that a product has been assessed, approved, and is subject to ongoing compliance requirements. Certification marking also supports traceability and regulatory confidence across the supply chain.
Certification marks you may hold
The certification mark applied to your product depends on the applicable regulatory framework and certification pathway. CMI administers national schemes such as CodeMark Australia and WaterMark, as well as its own CMI ProdCert scheme for product certification against Australian, New Zealand, and international standards.

Accredited Certification You Can Trust
What does JAS-ANZ accreditation mean?
CMI Certification is accredited by JAS-ANZ to operate product certification schemes in accordance with ISO/IEC 17065, the international standard for bodies certifying products, processes, and services.
This accreditation confirms that CMI:
Operates independently and impartially
Applies consistent, transparent certification rules
Uses competent personnel and qualified technical assessors
Is subject to regular audits and oversight by JAS-ANZ
JAS-ANZ does not certify products.
Instead, JAS-ANZ accredits certification bodies like CMI Certification, providing confidence to regulators, industry, and consumers that certification decisions are credible and internationally recognised.
JAS-ANZ Schemes
Clients are advised that they must be mindful when commissioning test reports that the test lab can provide a copy of their accredited scope, referencing all of the test standards they are accredited to test the product against. Alternatively, you can search the scope of the laboratory on either the NATA web site or through a mutually recognised accreditation body from another country accredited via ILAC, such as IANZ in New Zealand .
