  • (1888PressRelease) November 06, 2021 - SGS, the world’s leading testing, inspection and certification company, has published an article looking at the ways gas appliance and component manufacturers can successfully enter North American markets with safe and compliant products.

    Unintentional, non-fire related carbon monoxide poisonings account for 4,000 hospitalizations and 400 deaths per year in the US. Gas appliance and component suppliers need to be certain their products are safe and perform to necessary standards in order to successfully access these competitive markets.

    SGS’s Consumer Compact article looks at the advantages and disadvantage of gas appliances and the potential problems that can occur when products are poor quality or badly maintained. It also considers what solutions are available to manufacturers and suppliers that will ensure safety and help them to build consumer trust.
