Pipes and pipe fittings play a pivotal role in the functionality of facilities big and small, worldwide. As such, manufacturers must provide products that customers can rely on. Customers trust companies to stay up to date with safety standards and certification requirements to ensure that when products hit the market, they work as promised. CSA Group can help.
CSA Group provides testing, evaluation, and certification for manufacturers of pipes and fittings, plastic and non-plastic, in both pressure and non-pressure applications. Thanks to their network of technical experts and automated laboratory facilities in the United States and Canada, CSA Group provides accreditation support to help manufacturers demonstrate that their products comply with applicable safety, environmental, and operating performance standards for markets worldwide.
Many of the field and technical experts at CSA Group are members of the technical committees that help develop the standards for the pipe and pipe fittings sector. This allows them to understand both the challenges manufacturers face and the proposed changes to the standards with which they must comply.

- State-of-the-art labs—technical experts and automated labs across Canada and the U.S.
