Certification Offer

Marque de certification - GéotextilesTo meet the needs of geotextile manufacturers interested in obtaining recognition of their product quality, the BNQ has established a certification program based on the BNQ 7009-910 protocol in particular. The protocol was developed under the leadership of the CTT Group. When the BNQ confirms that a manufacturer’s products conform to the program’s requirements, it issues the manufacturer a certificate of conformity. The scope of the manufacturer’s conformity certificate is based on the following three parameters for each geotextile undergoing certification:

  • The physical properties (characteristics) subject to certification;
  • The nominal value of each physical property (characteristic);
  • The geotextile’s unique identification.

Under the certification program, manufacturers must also prove that they meet the requirements governing quality management systems.

This certification program is accredited by the Standards Council of Canada.
