Did you know that height products are valid?

As all EPIs have their validity issued by the Ministry of Labor, with the products for height would be no different! Also known as validity of the certificate of approval (C.A.), it dictates that all products have to be marketed in cindo years, and after the end of this period, they can no longer circulate in the market. Products for work at height follow the NR6 – Regulatory Standard – which ensures the provisions relating to PPE's and C.A. to certify their validity and preserve the quality of the products. The NR35 standard also indicates the guidelines that must be taken in relation to personal protective equipment, such as using the product typologies and the obligations of the employee and employer. The validity query, manufacturer, date of issue and other data are available on the Certificate of Approval Consultation Portal: https://consultaca.com/.When purchasing PPE for your company, be aware that the equipment has C.A. and has authorization from the MTE to be marketed, sold and delivered on the date of purchase. Steelflex has a portfolio of certified and certified products, in addition to the Inmetro seal, following all standards and certifications to always offer the best user experience. What is the Certificate of Approval? The Certificate of Approval is a document issued by the Ministry of Economy (former Ministry of Labor) that ensures that the product has been manufactured in accordance with current standards. According to NR 6, all PPE can only be marketed or used if it has the indication of the certificate of approval. The renewal is the responsibility of the company that markets and can be made no later than 90 days before maturity.
