SGS Helps PPE Manufacturers Understand EU and UK Conformity Requirements

SGS, the world’s leading testing, inspection and certification company, has published a Consumer Compact article detailing a Q&A on the impact of Regulation (EU) 2016/425 and Brexit on product conformity for personal protection equipment (PPE).

Regulation (EU) 2016/425 – the PPE Regulation – came into force on April 21, 2018, with the aim of ensuring free movement of trade and consumer protection. However, since Brexit happened on January 1, 2021, PPE has been regulated by Regulation 2016/425 in the UK. While this essentially mirrors the EU regulation, there are some differences.

SGS’s Consumer Compact article covers a Q&A held by European PPE experts Anna Ruhala and Kelvin Shephard. It answers questions relating to general EU and UK requirements alongside issues of conformity assessment on a wide range of PPE products.

Read the original Consumer Compact article, ‘Understanding EU and UK PPE requirements: commonly asked questions’.

SGS Helps Manufacturers Understand New York States Carpet Recycling Bill

SGS, the world’s leading testing, inspection and certification company, has published a SafeGuardS looking at New York state’s recently approved legislation relating to carpet recycling.

S05027-C/A09279A carpet extended responsibility legislation requires all manufacturers of carpets selling their products within the state to engage in an approved industry-wide recycling plan or establish their own carpet collection program, which must also be approved by the state’s Department of Environmental Conservation.

After January 2026, carpet manufacturers will no longer be able to operate in the state unless they have an approved, reliable mechanism for consumers to recycle discarded and unused carpeting. The aim is to reduce landfill and encourage recycling into new carpets and other products.

SGS has published SafeGuardS 040.23 to help stakeholders understand the implications of the new legislation. This includes the way carpet is defined in Bill A09279A, mandatory goals that have been set for recycling and the penalties that noncompliant manufacturers will face. There are also details of the new requirements relating to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) – ban beginning January 2025.

For more information, stakeholders should review SGS’s original SafeGuardS 040.23.

Note: the term ‘carpet’ does not include handmade rugs, area rugs or mats.

SGS announces complimentary webinar for importers and exporters involved in trade with Uganda

SGS, the world’s leading testing, inspection and certification company, has announced a free webinar aimed at importers, exporters, freighter forwarders and consolidators involved in trade with Uganda.

Uganda’s pre-export verification of conformity (PVoC) program protects consumers from substandard products that may endanger human health and the environment. It ensures products entering the country conform to compulsory standards, technical regulations and/or approved equivalents. Once a product is deemed compliant, it is issued with a Certificate of Conformity (CoC), which enables Customs clearance for the certified consignment. Operators who fail to comply with pre-export verifications procedures risk delays, noncompliance and penalties.

SGS has recently been awarded its fourth consecutive contract to provide PVoC services by the Uganda National Bureau of Standards (UNBS); coming into force on March 1, 2023. Their product conformity assessment (PCA) services help facilitate trade in compliant products and protect Ugandan markets and consumers.

Led by industry expert Hellen Achieng, the complimentary webinar is being held on April 18, 2023, and will cover the SGS PVoC program and related procedures, penalties and the responsibilities of exporters, importers and inspection companies. It will also look at how to submit a CoC request through the Uganda Electronic Single Window.

JC Heating and Cooling Earns Rheem Top Contractor Dealer For 6th Consecutive Year

HODGKINS, ILLINOIS- APRIL 4, 2023- JC Heating & Cooling, Inc. is honored to share its most recent achievement of earning top contractor dealer for Rheem HVAC products. The local HVAC company has earned this title for an astonishing six years running and shows no signs of it being their last. They offer complete heating and cooling solutions throughout Hodgkins and its surrounding areas to ensure comfort year-round.

By being a Rheem contractor dealer, JC Heating & Cooling, Inc. can supply customers with award-winning products, extend financing solutions, and provide extended warranties. All of these things combine to give customers the best experience when replacing or installing heating and cooling elements in their homes.

The decision to replace a worn-out AC or furnace isn’t always so cut and dry. Customers are often faced with what product is best for their home or what brand they should choose. Rheem has been an industry leader in heating and cooling for nearly a century. These are products that JC Heating & Cooling, Inc believes in, works with daily, and is proud to install in customers’ homes.

Founded in 1997, JC Heating & Cooling, Inc. was and still is a family-owned business. Owner Jaroslaw Chwierut established the company with a foundation of quality, honesty, and integrity. It was a natural fit pairing the HVAC company's values with Rheem's high-quality products. They are fully committed to maintaining the values in which they launched their business, along with the commitment to 5-star customer service.

There are some warning signs to look out for as a homeowner to indicate if your HVAC needs to be replaced. Uneven cooling, hot spots, no cold air when operating the AC, or skyrocketing energy bills can all signal it’s time to call an HVAC company for services. JC Heating & Cooling has mentioned, “ we recommend an inspection twice a year—once in the springtime and once in the fall to ensure your home or commercial HVAC system performs efficiently year-round.” During an inspection, their technicians can review key details, including the age of the equipment. After a certain point, generally 15 years or older, HVAC equipment falters and becomes less energy efficient. Replacing these units can give homes and businesses better control over temperatures while saving money.

Known as the #1 HVAC company in the Hodgkins area, customers can breathe easy knowing their heating and cooling needs can be met all in one place. JC Heating & Cooling, Inc. performs repairs, maintenance, installations, and emergency services. They extend excellent pricing on new ductless mini-splits, central AC, furnaces, heat pumps, and more. Their technicians fit each customer with the best unit to meet their HVAC needs and budget. Get started today by reaching out for a free consultation on AC installation, furnace replacement, etc., and to discuss financing options for top-quality Rheem products.
