Your Assurance Of Recognition
Accreditation demonstrates that we are fully qualified to test and certify your products, and that the results are widely recognized in your chosen markets.
CSA certifications are used and accepted across North America and around the world, on over 1 billion products. And that number continues to grow.
In the U.S., CSA International is recognized by the Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA) as a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL). Generally speaking, all OSHA recognized laboratories conduct their tests against the same sets of U.S. standards and codes, regardless of who authors or publishes them. CSA International tests to applicable U.S. standards, which include ANSI, UL, CSA, NSF, and others. In Canada CSA International is accredited as a Certification Organization (CO) and as a Testing Organization (TO) by the Standards Council of Canada (SCC).
The following chart lists some of the organizations in alphabetical order that have accredited CSA International in the various product categories.
