IAPMO R&T to Certify “Green” Products

IAPMO R&T is pleased to announce that it is now certifying “Green” products in order to better meet today’s global environmental needs. The Green certification program offers the consumer a choice to select products that not only meet the minimum requirements of applicable codes and standards, but also those that can be readily identified as products that are more friendly to the environment.

“IAPMO R&T has always been on the forefront of certification issues related to plumbing products” said Shahin Moinian, senior director of IAPMO R&T. “This new certification program allows the manufacturers to identify their green products in a better manner and allows the Authorities Having Jurisdiction, as well as consumers, to recognize such products much easier.”

“We are proud to be the first major plumbing product certification program in North America to offer a “Green” product certification program”, said Russ Chaney, executive director of The IAPMO Group.

For more information on the list of products that may be Green certified and the procedures for such certification, please contact Tricia Schwenke or Zenona Ortega at 1-877-4 UPC MARK.

IAPMO R&T certifies and lists plumbing and mechanical products according to established US and Canadian codes and standards, ensuring continuous compliance to such documents. IAPMO R&T is part of The IAPMO Group’s family of companies.
