Certificates and Compliance

Every claim on this site that can be checked, we can send you the document for. This page sets out what we hold, what each document actually covers, and the two things it does not. If your supplier approval needs a specific one, ask for it with the drawing and it goes out with the quotation.

Documents we hold

DocumentWhat it coversReference and holder
ISO 9001:2015Quality management system covering the production of plastic parts for LED lamps – the extrusion, cutting and inspection work behind these profiles.Certificate 00124Q34175R1S/3300, issued by the China Quality Certification Centre (CQC). First issued 17 May 2021, re-issued 23 May 2024, valid to 16 May 2027. Holder: Zhejiang Baoming Optical Materials Co., Ltd.
UL 94 flame ratingsThe polycarbonate grades we extrude are UL-recognised component plastics. The card covering the Panlite L-1250 grades lists V-0 from 1.0 mm and V-2 at 0.40–0.8 mm; the card for Panlite ML-3000Z(W)(FT) lists V-2.UL component plastics cards, reproduced in the photographs below. The recognition is held by the compound manufacturer, not by us – which is why we quote the grade and the thickness, never a blanket V-0 badge.

What these documents do not cover

UL94 is a material rating, not a product rating. It is measured on a moulded specimen of a stated thickness, so a V-0 result at 1.0 mm does not carry automatically to a 1.5 mm wall, to a co-extruded section, or to a surface with a texture rolled into it. On the drawing confirmation we state the grade and the thickness the rating applies to for your section.

We do not hold our own UL listing on finished profiles, and we do not hold an EN 45545-2 certificate for railway interiors. Where a project needs one, we supply the compound data the integrator asks for, extrude the section the fire requirement calls for and support the test programme, rather than presenting a certificate that does not exist. If a formal test report is a condition of the order, say so early and we will tell you what we can and cannot do before you commit to tooling.

Two things to check on any certificate you are given. The compound on the report has to be the compound in your quotation, and the thickness on the report has to be the thickness in your section. And on transit work, smoke density and toxicity are asked for separately from a vertical burn rating – a V-0 sheet does not answer them.

What goes out with a quotation

Material and rating

The compound grade, and the wall thickness the flame rating applies to for your section.

Optical figures

Transmission and colour coordinate targets for the material quoted, not for a brochure sample.

Inspection record

The dimensional and appearance record format used on the production batch, so the paperwork matches the goods.

Certificate copies

ISO 9001, the SGS RoHS report and the PAH statement, as PDF or scan. Tell us which ones your client needs.

Send the drawing and the compliance requirement together, and the quotation comes back against the real specification instead of being rebuilt later.
