The certification of products, processes, or services involves multiple evaluation activities such as inspection of manufacturing processes, testing of samples taken by the certifier, and sometimes auditing of the quality system, depending on the product to be certified and the normative document to be certified.
With the accreditation granted, product, process, and service certification bodies can provide their clients with a declaration of compliance with the evaluated requirements, according to their needs, by means of seals, certificates or marks of conformity.
Under this scheme, organizations that certify or want to certify all types of manufactured products can be accredited, for example: metallic materials, household appliances, construction materials, electrical material, automotive products, food products, forestry products, handicraft products, textiles and in general all products susceptible of complying with a quality standard.
