Ministry_ Sirim certification needed for non-medical face masks
- 2 years ago
Effective July 4, manufacturers and importers of non-medical face masks must apply for MS Sirim certification and labelling from Sirim QAS International Sdn Bhd.
The Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Ministry, in a statement yesterday, said the ruling comes following yesterday’s gazetting of the Trade Descriptions (Certification and Marking) of Non-Medical Face Mask Order 2022 under the Trade Descriptions Act 2011.
According to the ministry, the move is to ensure that non-medical face masks produced locally, or imported, comply with the set safety standards.
