Testing material quality at various processing stages from fiber to fabric and assessing processing efficiency by applying physical, chemical and processing tests are an integral part of SITRA's services to its members. SITRA has set expectations for all the essential quality characters on the basis of analysis, consultancy work, and inter-mill comparison studies. Testing services help the mills evaluate the output, select the appropriate output raw material, and evaluate the process competency. A comparison of the mill test results with the SITRA test results will also enable mills with their own test laboratory to verify the accuracy of their test results. In addition, the National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories (NABL), New Delhi, has accredited SITRA physical and chemical laboratories for compliance with ISO / IEC 17025 laboratory accreditation guidelines.
SITRA certification is applicable to the following:
➲ Manufacturer of Personal Protection Equipments (PPE)
➲ Importer of Personal Protection Equipments
So, every manufacturer who manufactures PPE like cloths, apron, facemask, etc need to procure SITRA testing certification for selling PPE products in the market. SITRA after verifying the testing of the product will issue a UCC (Unique Certification Code) to every verified product which needs to be mentioned the product while selling.
