Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) Certification

Third-party PPE certification helps protect people, manage risk, and demonstrate product compliance in high-risk work environments.

CMI Certification provides JAS-ANZ accredited PPE product certification under the CMI ProdCert Scheme.

Certified PPE demonstrates an organisation’s commitment to meeting defined safety and performance requirements. Certification provides confidence that products have been independently assessed against applicable standards and are suitable for use in demanding environments.

This Certification Scheme is our most flexible scheme, covering Australia, New Zealand and many other countries around the globe. Our CMI ProdCert Scheme evaluates products against the requirements of ISO/IEC 17065 and the specific standard(s) such as AS/NZS, AS, NZS, NFPA, ASTM and ISO.

The ISO/IEC 17065 process evaluates products or compliance to national or international standard, based on the supply of test reports from recognised testing laboratorys such as, NATA, IANZ or ILAC approved laboratories and testing facilities, manufacturing site audits, technical documentation, Product Quality Plan (PQP) and on-going annual audits.

Efficient transfer and turnaround times
Existing certification evidence is reviewed to avoid unnecessary duplication and delays.

Independent, third-party product certification
Objective assessment based on certification requirements and technical evidence.

Clear and structured certification processes
A straightforward process designed to maintain certification continuity and minimise disruption.

Certification Transfer Process

Step 1 – Eligibility and document review

Submission of your current certificate, most recent audit report, test reports, specifications, product markings, user instructions, and other relevant technical documentation.

Step 2 – Technical assessment

Review of certification status, audit outcomes, and supporting compliance evidence.

Step 3 – Transfer decision

Confirmation of transfer and continuation of certification under the CMI ProdCert Scheme, where eligibility criteria are met.

Submit your enquiry and we’ll confirm eligibility and next steps.

Transfers are subject to accreditation scope, certification status, and technical review.

Marking of Product Certified Products

Product marking plays a vital role in the Product Certification Scheme, ensuring compliance and promoting safety and quality. Marking products with the appropriate certifications and labels helps consumers make informed choices, distinguishing certified products from others in the market. It provides clear evidence that a product has undergone rigorous testing, manufacturing quality controls and meets established standards. Additionally, product marking aids in traceability, allowing authorities to track and identify certified products throughout the supply chain. By adhering to proper marking practices, manufacturers contribute to building trust, protecting consumers, and upholding the integrity of the Product Certification Scheme, ultimately fostering a safer and more reliable marketplace.

Changes to your product since it was certified

The things you need to let CMI Certification know that may or have changed since your product was originally certified are:

Change of Suppliers of any Raw Materials or Components
Change to Certified Product Specifications or Design
Change of Manufacturing Location
Change to Marking, Packaging, User Instructions, Installation Instructions etc
Change in Details or Address of Certificate Holder
Change to Standard or claims within the Standard

This notification should occur prior to the changes being actually implemented so that CMI Certification can discuss and advise the actions/updates that maybe required to be undertaken because of the change.
