Our staple guns were type-tested by TÜV Rheinland and carry the GS-Mark. We give you the approval number rather than a logo, because a logo on a webpage proves nothing — a number in the issuer's database does.
GS stands for Geprüfte Sicherheit, "tested safety". It is a German product-safety mark issued by an authorised body — in our case TÜV Rheinland — after the product has been type-tested. It is not an ISO certificate, and it is not something a manufacturer can declare on its own letterhead: the certificate sits in the issuer's database with a number attached.
For a European buyer the practical difference is this: a supplier who can quote a test-mark number is a supplier whose product has been through someone else's laboratory. One who cannot is asking you to take the word of the factory that made it.
Selected models do: WJ-B3, WJ-B8, WJ-B11, WJ-B15 and WJ-B18, under GS approval number 50571636, tested by TÜV Rheinland. You can look the approval up in Certipedia under our company name. We publish the number rather than a logo because a number can be checked and a logo cannot.
Yes. Bodies, pad printing and packing are done on floor 3 of our own building, so branding is a specification we control rather than something we subcontract.
7–10 days. Bulk production starts only after your own QC has signed off on the sample — we do not start a run on a deposit alone.
