Product Approvals

Product approvals

BEAB Approved Mark
The BEAB Approved Mark is an electrical safety mark. It demonstrates to everyone in the supply chain that the UK's leading, independent approvals specialists have evaluated a product to the highest European and International standards. Backed by the expert knowledge of the approvals engineers, the BEAB Approved Mark can provide a robust defence in law against a product liability claim.

BEAB CARE Mark
The BEAB CARE Mark has been developed in recognition of the additional performance requirements of certain products within the care industry. It is available for products which have already complied with the appropriate electrical safety standard, and in addition have been tested against an exacting special test schedule developed to measure specific performance issues relating to its application in the care sector.

WRAS
The Water Regulations Advisory Scheme (WRAS) assesses water fittings products to ensure that they do not waste, misuse, unduly consume or contaminate the water supply, in order to show compliance with Regulation 4 of the requirements of the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999.

Waterwise
The Marque is awarded annually to products which reduce water wastage or raise the awareness of water efficiency. Marques have been awarded across a broad spectrum of products including dishwashers, showerheads, water storing gels for the garden, toilets and urinals, drought resistant turf, domestic water recycling products, water butts, a waterless carwash, tap flow restrictors, a shower timer and devices to reduce the amount of water used when flushing your toilet, amongst others.

TMV2
The TMV Scheme is an independent third party approval scheme administered by Buildcert. The TMV Scheme certifies Type 2 thermostatic mixing valves for the domestic market and is working with the Child Accident Prevention Trust to promote the safe use of hot water in domestic premises, with the immediate focus on social housing. TMV2 approval uses BS EN 1111 and 1287 as a basis for the thermostatic valves performance tests.

TMV3
TMV3 valves are engineered to a high standard so that they meet Government Health and Safety requirements for use in public places such as Schools, Hospitals, Offices etc. Predominantly used in the healthcare industry, however, every employer has a duty under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 to ensure that the health and safety of patients, residents, visitors and staff using a building are not at risk, and this applies to all types of buildings, not just healthcare premises.

Water Efficient Product
The Water Efficient Product Labelling Scheme has been developed by the BMA - the lead trade association for manufacturers of bathroom products in the United Kingdom. The Scheme raises awareness of bathroom products that when installed and used correctly use less water, therefore saving water and energy, whilst delivering the bathing experience we have come to expect.

Many of Mira's products now meet the criteria of the Water Efficiency Scheme, and can be easily identified by the BMA logo.
