Recently, Seiwa Electric Co., Ltd. Lighting Division Optical Testing Laboratory has been registered as a registered testing organization by the Independent Administrative Institution National Institute of Technology and Evaluation (NITE). The Registered Testing Organization System (JNLA) is a system that certifies whether a testing laboratory has the capability to demonstrate correct performance in accordance with the requirements for testing laboratories (ISO/IEC 17025) through document review and on-site inspection. Currently, there are only four registered testing laboratories for photometric measurement methods (JIS C 8105-5) among lighting fixture manufacturers, and Seiwa Electric Co., Ltd. becomes the fifth. Registered testing organizations under the JNLA system can issue test certificates and performance reports with a special emblem (symbol) in the testing registration category indicated on the registration certificate as proof of their registration. As a publicly recognized testing organization with stable quality, we enhance the Seiwa brand and ensure that our customers can use products of stable quality. We will continue to conduct measurement tests based on the JNLA registration system, providing reliable performance indications to our customers and striving for the appropriate dissemination of LED lighting fixtures and the creation of even more reliable products.
