CSA offers flexibility and guidance, every step of the way

CSA International is working hard to be responsive to manufacturers like you. Our job is to help you get your products to market in the most timely and efficient way.

That means we have made the certification process as flexible as possible by offering you six different testing options. The differences are based on your level of involvement and needs.

For example, some companies choose to do the testing at their own facilities. Others prefer that we arrange it. You can choose the level of support you need from CSA International without ever compromising quality or safety.

Whichever option you choose, CSA International will be there to support you with training, encouragement, and expertise.
