IAPMO R&T Freezes Prices for 2012

Ontario, Calif. — In an effort to help current and prospective listees weather these trying economic times, IAPMO R&T is again freezing all of its fees in 2012, continuing to deliver the same outstanding service and the most credible Marks of Conformity in the industry at 2010 prices.

North America’s premier plumbing and mechanical product listing agency has committed to at least 36 consecutive months of the same fee schedule for its entire comprehensive menu of services, giving IAPMO R&T clients the maximum value for their certification dollars.

“As manufacturers look to establish workable budgets for the coming year, they can rest assured they won’t be hit with unexpected cost increases associated with the certification of their products when using IAPMO R&T,” said Anish Desai, director of Product Certification. “Our pricing structure is locked in for the entire year, giving our clients consistency they can count on in 2012.”

Since 1936, IAPMO and IAPMO R&T have listed plumbing, mechanical, solar and numerous other products, creating decades-strong value and instant recognition among Authorities Having Jurisdiction for their cUPC® and other highly credible Marks of Conformity. Accepted in the United States and Canada, IAPMO R&T’s Marks of Conformity open doors and eliminate doubt.

With offices in Toronto (Canada), Ruhr (Germany), Monterrey (Mexico), Buenos Aires (Argentina), Beijing (China), Bengaluru (India), and Melbourne (Australia), IAPMO R&T’s menu of certification services and expert customer service is available on five continents.

“Even though our Marks of Conformity speak for themselves, IAPMO R&T clients aren’t just issued their certification and sent on their way — we are wherever you need us, whenever you need us,” Desai said. “And we anticipate the announcement of additional money-saving programs in the months ahead to further assist our clients.”

The list of available services goes beyond plumbing, mechanical, swimming pool and recreational vehicles to also include electrical and solar products, as well as certification to the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) WaterSense® water efficient consumer product labeling system and the EPA and Department of Energy’s (DOE) ENERGY STAR® program.
