Amiad receives NSF accreditation for drinking water safety

Amiad (AIM: AFS), a leading global producer of water treatment and filtration solutions, is pleased to announce that major product lines based on its automatic self-cleaning screen and microfibre technology have been certified by NSF International, a US-based independent public health and safety accreditation organisation, as meeting the requirements of 'NSF/ANSI Standard 61 - Drinking Water System Components - Health Effects' ("NSF/ANSI 61") for 2015.

Based on extensive product testing, material analyses and plant inspections, NSF evaluated every aspect of the products' construction or structure. NSF/ANSI 61 testing determines what contaminants may migrate or leach from a filtration system into drinking water and confirms that they are within the maximum levels allowed to be considered safe for human consumption. Certification to NSF/ANSI 61 assures Amiad's customers that the products meet the regulatory requirements for the US and Canada as well as for many other countries. As a result of the certification, Amiad can display the NSF mark on the certified products.

The key product lines that have received the certification are across Amiad's AMF range based on automatic self-cleaning microfibre technology for water filtration as fine as 2 micron; and its SAF and EBS ranges based on automatic self-cleaning screen technology for water filtration as fine as 10 micron.

Arik Dayan, CEO of Amiad Water Systems, said: "We are delighted to have received this certification from the world-renowned NSF International organisation. It is testament to the high calibre of our products, technologies and manufacturing processes. As such, it provides further assurance to our customers that when they select Amiad filters to comprise part of their own systems, they are choosing a quality solution. We will be proud to display the NSF mark on our products."
