policies and principles are
designed to enhance a
company’s ability to identify
and control food safety
hazards, thus allowing the
organisation to meet or exceed
international food regulations.
The SA 8000 (Social
Accountability 8000) standard
is based on the priciples of
international workplace norms
contained
within
the
International
Labour
Organisation

Product
Certification
SIRIM QAS International’s Product Certification Scheme provides
credible and cost effective third party assurance on the quality,
safety and reliability of products. Our certification mark enhances
customer confidence by signifying that a product complies to
national or international standards.
SIRIM QAS International has been appointed by various
Malaysian regulatory agencies such as the Energy Commission,
the Communication and Multimedia Commision, the Fire and
Rescue Department and the Road Transport Department to certify
that products meet relevant national regulatory requirements.
Products can be certified under any of the following schemes:
• Product Certification Scheme
• Product Listing Scheme
• Batch Certification Scheme
• Fire Listing Scheme
• Modular Coordination Verification Scheme
• New Generation Diesel Engine Scheme
• IECEE CB Scheme
• UN Marking for Packaging
• International Safe Transit Association (ISTA)
• E-permit
• Type Approval
• Electromagnetic Compatibility Certification Scheme
• Eco-labeling Scheme
• Chain-Of-Custody Certification for forest-based products
17
Product Certification Scheme
The Product Certification Scheme is offered to
manufacturers or traders who need to have their product
certified to meet the requirements of a national or
international standard. For most products, participation in
this scheme is voluntary. However, government regulatory
authorities may make certification mandatory for certain
products.
Product Listing Scheme
This scheme is similar to the Product Certification Scheme
but is used in cases where there is no formally-recognised
national or international product standard. Instead,
certification is realised according to association or industry
standards as well as acceptable customer specifications as
references.
Batch Certification Scheme
Another third-party certification scheme whereby products are sample tested in batches. Certificates of conformity
and/or labels are issued to each batch and are based on publicly-available national or international standards
or the standards of industry, associations or acceptable customer specifications.
Fire Listing Scheme
SIRIM QAS International offers several certifications on passive fire protection products such as fire resistant door
sets and roller shutters. These certifications are awarded based on the whole “system” of the product, including
all its components such as the door leaves, frames and ironmongeries. Because these certifications are based on
entire systems, the certified products must be sold with the exact same components or of equivalent or better grade
than those used during testing.
Modular Coordination Verification Scheme
This is a concept of coordination of dimension and space, in which buildings and components are dimensioned
and positioned in terms of the International System of Units (SI) known as ‘1M’ (1 metre) which is equivalent to
100 mm. It is internationally accepted by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and many
other countries including Malaysia.
18
New Generation Diesel Engine Scheme
The aim of this scheme is to encourage a cleaner environment by
awarding low-emission vehicles and engines with a “green” status.
Owners of these vehicles or engines will enjoy lower road tax rates.
This offers the market an incentive to invest in vehicles which comply
with the low-emission requirements of the EURO 1 standard.
IECEE CB Scheme
The IECEE CB Scheme is crucial for manufacturers who want to
reassure end users about the safety and reliability of their products
and is the fastest and most economic road towards worldwide third
party certification. It is a multilateral recognition agreement scheme
that assures a product’s conformity to the criteria of IEC international
standards and that it requires no further testing or evaluation.
UN Marking for Packaging
The UN Marking scheme follows international packaging
practices and covers the type of packaging, class or group of
danger, capacity, country which certified the packaging, year of
manufacture as well as the approving authority. It runs on the
Product Certification Scheme and includes packaging
performance, factory assessment and surveillance inspection, all
of which are instrumental in ensuring that the packaging complies
with the requirement of the Malaysian Standard as well as the
UN Orange Book.
ISTA
International Safe Transit Association (ISTA) test procedures are
internationally recognised because they are based on leading
technology and the most current global transport environment data.
Real-world transport data is provided by ISTA members for the
benefit of other members. A vast amount of members’ transportation
environment data is aggregated to create a powerful data set for
simulating route variables. These observations of the transport
environment are used to create valid simulations in test scenarios,
thus increasing a package’s likelihood of surviving real world
transport scenarios.
19
Type Approval
Type Approval is a Product Certification Scheme granted to a specific
model of communications equipment which has complied with the
technical specifications of a Malaysian or international standard or other
countries’ national standards organisations. It is also granted to products
that comply with the technical checklist or declarations of association or
industry standards or acceptable customer specifications.
Type Approval is a mandatory requirement for all communications
equipment under the Communications and Multimedia Act (CMA) 1998,
Communications and Multimedia (Technical Standards) Regulations
2000.
E-permit - http://epermit.dagangnet.com
An E-permit is an electronic import permit document which is issued by
SIRIM QAS International for communication and multimedia products for
the purpose of clearance from the Royal Malaysian Customs Department.
The application and approval of permits is done via the E Permit System.
Electromagnetic Compatibility Certification Scheme
The basis of this scheme is to ensure that electrical and electronics
products and equipment are safe and do not interfere with the normal
operation of other equipment. Manufacturers certified according to this
scheme may apply for the EMC Mark as the product certification process
is conducted through an independent third-party.
Eco-labeling Scheme
This scheme enables companies to position themselves as environmental
leaders. Manufacturers, retailers, importers and exporters who meet the
requirements of this scheme may use the SIRIM Eco-label mark to declare
the environmental benefits of their products and thus gain a competitive
edge in the marketplace.
Chain-Of-Custody Certification for Forest-Based Products
This scheme audits the transport and transformation of wood-based
products from primary logging through timber processing to final product.
It assesses and proves the origin of wood products and assures buyers
that they come from forests that are managed responsibly.
20
