BSI has been notified that a number of manufacturers are selling medical face masks - and in some instances other disposable medical clothing - on the back of false certificates.
We recommend that prior to purchasing any form of safety equipment supported by a certificate appearing to be issued by BSI, you verify to ensure that such certificate is genuine.
You can search BSI’s directory for BSI certified clients and valid certificate numbers here: https://verifeyedirectory.bsigroup.com/. If they are not listed on the directory, they are not a client of BSI.
So far, we are aware of the following:
• P&P Business Group, also known as P&P factory
• Dhanvantari B.V.
• Brif Sadia Sah
We are notifying various European regulators and law enforcement agencies, such as Trading Standards in the UK, of the situation.
