Bob,
We are a UL recognized molder and comply with the standard for Polymeric Materials - Fabricated Parts, UL 746D. Bruin Manufacturing has been a UL Recognized Plastics Molder (QMMY2) under number E237366 for several years. We pursued registration for the benefit of our current customers and the marketing potential to obtain new clients.
In our marketing efforts, we have found this certification to be a useful tool. Many of our new/potential clients have had negative experiences with suppliers substituting materials on critical components or not being able to trace finish product back to a raw material lot number. Being audited and certified by UL on a regular basis for material traceability has reassured a number of new clients that they won’t run into the same issues with us.
We have also been a UL recognized molder for several Components for our customers for over 30 years. Like mentioned in the other posts, this was requested by the customer and they paid all fees associated with certifying those components.
With that experience and a good handle on material traceability and documentation, adding the QMMY2 certification to the company as a whole was an easy task and made sense with our business plan. We can place the UL trademark on every product produced and shipped from our plant.
If you have any questions about the process you can call 641-752-7116.
