Material Testing Certificate (3.1 & 3.2)

A Material Testing Certificate, specifically the 3.1 and 3.2 certificates, are standard documents used in materials testing and quality assurance. Here’s a breakdown of what these certificates typically involve:

Certificate 3.1 is often referred to as a "Declaration of Compliance with the Order" or "Test Certificate" and is commonly used in the context of European standards (e.g., EN 10204). It indicates that the materials or products have been tested and comply with the specified requirements of the order. Key elements usually include:

• Identification of the product: Detailed description of the material, including grade and specification.
• Testing: Results of the tests performed to ensure compliance with the standard or specification.
• Compliance: Confirmation that the material meets the required specifications or standards.
• Signature: Often signed by an authorized person from the manufacturer or testing lab.

Certificate 3.2

Certificate 3.2 is a more detailed document, often referred to as a "Certificate of Conformity" or "Inspection Certificate." It is generally issued by a third-party inspection agency and includes:

• Inspection Details: Description of the inspection or testing performed, including the standards followed.
• Test Results: Detailed results from the testing of the material.
• Declaration: A statement of conformity with the relevant standards or specifications.
• Inspector Information: Information about the third-party inspection agency, including their credentials.
