Tandoors Adhering to Safety Standards

While trying to find a new piece of equipment, or similar food service necessity, customers often look for recognizable safety certifications on the equipment, as desired by law, to help make a decision. Other than the much sought after “Made in the USA” or “Made in Canada” stamp of authentication, certain common safety certifications are like gold stars on purchases made by customers, especially of products that are dangerous to be used, such as tandoors and clay ovens supplied by Mainra Traders.

We provide free delivery of tandoor in the USA. Trekking the

extra mile as a manufacturer to get this special recognition goes a long way in the eyes of

consumers, and there are a handful of well-known, third-party certifications based on highest

safety standards that make all the difference. We are a provider of the certified gas system tandoor

ovens in Canada, certified clay ovens in Canada, and prominently certified tandoor products in

Canada. Following are some of the common safety certifications that equipment manufacturers

seek for their equipment: NSF, ANSI, UL, CE, CSA, ETL, Energy Star

Some safety certifications are not required by law, depending on stipulations of your state or

city. Be sure to check with the local authorities to determine which certifications are an

absolutely necessity prior to choosing a certified product.

NSF Certification – The NSF mark is the most widely recognized safety certification preferred for

food service equipment nowadays. Assigned by NSF International, a certified dedicated as being

the leading global provider of public health and safety-based risk management solutions, the

NSF the label promises consumers that a particular manufacturer has passed highly detailed safety

requirements as outlined by the certifying organization. The assessment also includes a product

assessment of design and construction, a material evaluation of anything that comes in contact

with food, and even performance testing where-ever applicable. Additionally, manufacturers

who are awarded an NSF certification have their facilities audited unannounced to ensure

compliance and adhering to standards. Always ensure to look for the NSF mark to be 100%

certain of the certification.

ANSI Certification – The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and it's certification often

goes hand-in-hand with the NSF mark. The two are completely separate entities altogether, but

many consumers see an ANSI certification to be at par with the certification from NSF. Like NSF,

ANSI has been creating and maintaining nationally recognized norms and guidelines regarding

food service products for decades. The company’s ANS (American National Standards) have

provided ratings, dimensions, test methods, performance and safety standards, and terminology

to multiple types of equipment used in the food industry.

UL Certification – Underwriters Laboratories (UL) certifications cover not only product safety, but

also testing of systems and services used. While the UL mark is often associated with safety, the

company specializes in setting standards with which to gauge and validate performance,

sustainability, and environmental health. Following the ANSI continuous maintenance standards,

the basic UL Listed mark deals solely with safety, but there are a handful of other well-known UL

certifications that pertain to other regions and specifications, some of these include the C-UL

(Canada), Classified UL, Gas-Fired UL, UL EPH, Water Quality Mark, and Plumbing Mark.

CE Certification – The CE marking was set by the European Commission and signifies that a

product conforms to European laws or directives in regards to safety, health, and the

environment. The marking is required to facilitate trade in the European Economic Area. What

sets the CE Marking apart from many other certifications is that CE conformity is usually done

through self-declaration as opposed to a formal inspection. A CE Marking does not ensure

compliance with North American safety standards in any way, and the US consumers need to get

a separate certification.

These certifications are there to ensure that the equipment produced for the food industry

adheres to defined security compliance and standards and is safe to be used.
