Unigulf Air Conditioning, a leader in the heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) pre-insulated duct (PID) system, announced that it has been awarded the Certificate of Product Conformity by Dubai Central Laboratory (DCL).

DCL, an initiative of the government of Dubai, is operated through the Dubai Municipality.

The company received the certificate for its state-of-the-art automated plant as well as products manufactured, said a statement from Unigulf Air Conditioning.

The certification, based on internationally recognised standard BS EN 13165, is proof of the company’s commitment to adhering to the stringent quality and norms that have been laid down by the Dubai Municipality for both manufacturing as well as product sale, it added.

The certification has been awarded for the company’s operations and quality management system as well as the Easy panels after successful assessment and by the DCL authorities in accordance with the DCDLD Document Ref. No. RD-DP21-2001 (IC) “General Rules for DM third party product certification system through factory assessment” and the relevant specific rules, it said.

Given the nature of the company’s involvement in the thermal insulation business, the new certification reassures the consistency and quality of products delivered to the market. This government initiative provides a level playing field for companies in the sector and raises the quality bar, said the statement.

The certification process audits and assures the vital properties of the products and production or manufacturing process. These include thermal conductivity to International standard ASTM C 518 : 2010 and  critical fire properties to BS EN 13501 – 1:2007, as well as BS EN ISO 11925 – 2:2002, and also covers several other criteria.

Prakash Chablani, managing director of Unigulf Air Conditioning Industries of Unigulf Group, said: “Our company has always strongly emphasised on quality standards as well as the safety and security of our manufacturing unit and product lines.”

“We welcome the move by the government of Dubai in preparing the ground for companies to demonstrate global compliance under international standards by conducting rigorous tests and we are proud to be certified by DCL,” he added. – TradeArabia News Service
