Safety Eyewear Testing

Detroit Testing Laboratory provides consumer product testing and is actively involved in sponsoring and administering certification programs for the bunk bed industry, public playground equipment and surfacing industry and Protective Eyewear Certification Council (PECC).
These programs are conducted in accordance with ANSI Z34.1-1993 for Certification-Third-Party Programs for Products, Processes and Services and appropriate standards. All programs involve, at a minimum, product evaluation and a visit by DTL inspectors annually.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) since 1994 has recalled more than a half-million bunk bed units. In response to deaths due to bunk beds, DTL became the sponsor and administrator of a bunk bed certification program in 1994.
