Quality & safety / Certificates

Documents matched to the exact program.

DOT, TPED, ISO and SDS/MSDS references answer different questions. Applicability depends on the equipment, organization, substance, transport route and destination.

Documentation map

One label cannot prove every requirement.

The useful question is not “Is it certified?” but “Which requirement applies to this cylinder, valve, gas, organization, shipment and market?”

Before a logo, approval number or certificate is shown, its holder, scope, issue status, expiry status and connection to the supplied product should be verified.
