According to the published information, the code “….seeks to provide assurance that any product information, whether written in a brochure, a presentation, or on a website or social media, can be relied on by specifiers and users of product information to have the necessary facts needed when making design decisions, installing, using and/or maintaining verified products.”
Participating companies will need to subject their product information, dissemination practices, product management systems, etc., for verification and, upon successful completion, they will receive a CCPI verification marque.
The verification process is expected to open for registrants in early 2022 and full details can be found on the CCPI website here.
