Product Verification

RIMA International has joined with ASTM International and their certification team at SEI to manage the Verification Program https://www.astm.org/rimaverify.htm.  Products are verified in one of the following five categories: reflective insulation, radiant barrier, interior radiation control coating (IRCC), facer materials or radiant barrier vapor barrier. A third-party independent testing and inspection laboratory will determine whether a product’s physical properties comply with the appropriate standards. In order for a company to obtain approval on a category of products, all items within that category must be evaluated and deemed in compliance with current test standards. Technical data sheets, as well as websites containing test information, have been cross-checked for accuracy. (View a list of required tests for each category)

Product verification is renewed annually with all required testing requiring renewal every five years. All products will be labeled with a verification logo (as shown in the sample above) with a unique identification number (as shown in column one below) comprised of:  Country Code/Member Number/Product Category, see product verification example.

NOTE: At this time, verification is only available for products sold/purchased in the United States; however, this program will expand to include other countries in the future.  Membership in RIMA International is required.
