NORTHBROOK, Illinois, Jan. 5, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- UL Consumer and Retail Services (CRS) is proud to announce the debuts of the UL Toy Safety Enhanced Certification Mark and UL SmartInsights™ at numerous Toy Fairs around the world.
The UL Toy Safety Enhanced Certification Mark is a revolutionary new offering provided by UL CRS. UL's Toy Safety Certification Mark brings heightened credibility to the product's safety and compliance, and can help manage supply chain risk through detailed factory quality systems audits, product inspections and testing at various points in the supply chain. This mark will allow retailers, suppliers, wholesalers, and manufacturers to differentiate their product and demonstrate to their client base that they make safety and quality a priority, and will empower the trust of a UL Mark to consumers. UL's toy safety certification program is based on conformity assessments to the US specification, ASTM F963-16 Standard Consumer Safety Specification for Toy Safety, and is expected to expand to cover other global toy safety regulations.
UL SmartInsights™ is a library of regulatory information, organized in a user-friendly interface to help achieve global compliance. The system helps users to keep track of constantly changing requirements, search for regulations using custom metadata fields, compare key compliance requirements across regulations, and more. UL SmartInsights™ will give consumer product manufacturers confidence in their compliance program and the information to easily expand to new regions.
Both offerings will be revealed at the following Toy Shows:
These events will mark the first public appearance of these two new service offerings.
