Authentication method
In the scope of SAA certification, the application for SAA certification by Chinese manufacturers is mainly limited to product certification. According to the different types of products, product certification mainly adopts two ways: "formal recognition" and "standard mark". Among them, "formal approval" only requires the manufacturer to provide product samples and carry out laboratory testing according to SAA product standards. The "standard mark" requires factory inspection as well as sample testing. Generally, factories are required to have an effective quality management system in the production process of products for certification.
