Apr - 2007 Be Confident With WaterMark
It is important to be confident about the plumbing products you use, to ensure they are safe and capable of carrying out their intended purpose.
Specified products used within the Australian plumbing industry must be approved by the WaterMark certification trademark, which is a symbol that states a product meets the regulatory requirements.
This guarantees that those products governed by the code, are constructed from the right materials and meet the quality standards set for their intended use.
Standards Australia created the WaterMark to minimise the variety of markings that were being used to display the compliance of a product. The plumbing industry and regulators also endorsed the idea of a universal symbol and set of standards which is recognised by all state and territory regulators. A consistent regulatory process makes it easier for plumbers to understand the code and the demanding processes in place for a product to comply.

Rest assured that when you see the WaterMark trademark you're installing a quality product that has been tried and tested to the highest of standards. It means the product has been designed for the intended application, to ensure that you and your customers end up with conforming plumbing products.
