Quality marks of accredited organisations

Certification bodies can permit the organisations they certify to use a mark. This mark may then be used on the physical product, on a document provided with that product or on their website. Inspection bodies can apply a mark on approved objects.

On this page, we will develop a list of the marks that are used under accreditation. These marks will be divided in four categories: product certification, management system certification, personnel certification and inspection.

If you want a mark to be added to this list, please let us know via our contact form. We would like to receive the mark and a link to the webpage that explains the mark’s meaning.

We also want to provide an overview of the quality marks of external scheme owners issued under RvA accreditation. External scheme owners do not conduct any conformity assessments themselves. These assessments are carried out by one or more conformity assessment bodies (CABs) who have entered into an agreement with the external scheme owner for the use of the respective scheme. The external scheme owner stipulates as a condition for the use of the scheme that the CAB must be accredited for the respective scheme. Please find below several examples (according to the specification of a respective scheme owner).
