By insisting on products that bear the LIA LAB mark, lighting specifiers can be sure that their lighting designs will deliver the performance their clients expect, whilst giving them extra reassurance and peace of mind. Furthermore, the scheme operates in partnership with the Energy Saving Trust (EST), so that compliant products can also be marked with the EST verified brand mark to provide additional assurance of energy performance.
The LIA Laboratories verified brand mark provides independent verification of the performance of most lighting equipment, including luminaires and lamps/LED modules. With accurate data provided by the scheme you can ensure conformance with legislation, quality control and the support of product marketing claims – what’s more, your customers can be assured that the quality of our testing acts as a guarantee that the product in the box does exactly what it says on the box.
“When specifying or purchasing lighting products it is important to be confident that those products will deliver the expected performance in line with the claims made by the manufacturer,” explained LIA Laboratories general manager Mark Salt.
“This is particularly important for new lighting technologies, such as LEDs, where misconceptions and misrepresentation have resulted in a degree of wariness. Specifying LIA LAB verified products is the best way to ensure that the required performance is achieved,” he added.
LIA Laboratories provides a complete ISO 17025 accredited testing, verification and certification service. It is the U.K.’s largest independent test laboratory dedicated to lighting and has over 20 years’ experience in testing lighting products. It also has the largest scope of UKAS (United Kingdom Accreditation Service) accreditations for lighting and supporting products in the UK and is the UK government appointed Notified Body under the Low Voltage Directive.
