The WRc Approved Scheme is a certification scheme which provides an independent technical view on whether a product is fit to do the job for which it is claimed or a contractor is fit to provide a specified service.
WRc Approved certification demonstrates to purchasers that a product is “fit for purpose”. This saves the end-user time, as they no longer need to audit to validate the claims regarding the product/service performance. It also minimises the risk that they are purchasing something that does not deliver what it promises.
The assessment can be against an existing standard or, for novel products WRc can use its extensive knowledge of the UK and International Water Industry to develop appropriate requirements.
WRc Approved certification is of value to both UK and International companies; current approvals include products from Australia, Austria, France, Germany, Holland, Japan, New Zealand, UK and USA.
Since 1995 over 300 WRc Approved certificates have been issued. Further details about the WRc Approved Scheme can be found at http://www.wrcapproved.com.
