Whether you need market access, you’re bringing new products to market, or if you want to differentiate your products to gain market share we can work with you. Our range of services includes:

• Verification certificates (to demonstrate the result of a one-off test to a publically available specification)
• Testing to support CE marking (we are a Notified Body for 17 EU Directives including the Gas Appliance Directive, Boiler Efficiency Directive, EMC Directive and Low Voltage Directive)
• Full BSI Kitemark certification which is unique to BSI and one of the most recognized and robust quality marks around

We can also test products to many international standards or specifications, so we can help manufacturers gain access to many different markets around the world. This could help you to save time and money by working with BSI to help you access multiple markets. If there is a particular standard or specification for which you require a testing service, please complete a general enquiry form as we may be able to help.

If you are responsible for installing gas appliances in the UK you will need to be registered with the Gas Safe Register. Choosing to install a product with a BSI Kitemark can give Gas Safe registered engineers peace of mind that you are working with products that have been robustly tested on a regular basis to perform and to be safe to the latest standards. Each year BSI supports National Gas Safety Week.

If you are a landlord of high rise or low rise buildings with shared flues we can help you to meet your legal responsibility with our UKAS accredited Shared Flue inspection service known as Flue Scan. This comprehensive inspection service of your properties will help you to prove your duty of care and give you peace of mind.

The BSI Kitemark is widely recognized by procurement professionals, and those responsible for major infrastructure projects. Our product directory could help you to identify acceptable products for tenders and validation. It allows you to search for approved BSI Kitemark products with their model numbers and descriptions and it makes it easier to identify products and services with the Kitemark.
