PRODUCT SAFETY

With effect from 1st April
2002, the Singapore Productivity and Standard Board
(PSB) is known as the Standards, Productivity and Innovation
Board or SPRING Singapore for short. SPRING stands for
Standards, Productivity and Innovation for Growth.
At the same time, the Singapore Consumer Protection
(Safety Requirements) Registration Scheme (CPS Scheme)
is changed from one based on government certification
to one based on third-party Conformity Assessment Bodies
(CAB) certification. PSB is the Designating Authority
of CABs under the Singapore Productivity and Standards
Board (Conformity Assessment) Regulations 2002. The
Consumer Protection (Safety Requirements) Regulation
2002 is applicable for testing of products.
Currently there are total of 45 controlled goods for
CPS Certification.
Safety mark has to be placed on the product.
License holder has to be the local representative.
The following documents are required for CPS Certification.
