What is UL 969?
UL 969 (also known as ANSI 969) is one of the most important standards for labels and markings used by manufacturers. All items produced to this standard are pre-qualified and tested by Underwriters Laboratories (UL) to ensure durability. Specifically, UL 969 sets out the requirements for the construction and performance of marking and labelling systems intended for permanent product identification.
Examples of such identification include labels affixed to devices and equipment that provide essential information such as usage ratings, schematics, operating instructions, and safety-related details—including electrical ratings, hazard warnings, cautionary notices, and installation guidance.
UL standards are a crucial requirement for many types of applications. When engaging with a label and nameplate manufacturer, it is important to clearly understand which standards or certifications your nameplates need to meet.
UL 969-compliant labels provide manufacturers with significant benefits, including reduced liability, enhanced brand reputation, and increased customer confidence. By meeting the requirements of UL 969, manufacturers show their dedication to producing high-quality labels that conform to recognised safety and performance standards.

PGAA
PGAA category consists of the Authorised Supplier Program where suppliers of labels and other printed document must adhere to specific printing guidelines before they can print the UL Certification Mark.
Certification for the PGAA program includes an initial inspection followed by regular visits from a UL inspector.
Suppliers with PGAA accreditation can reproduce all UL marks, this is done by gaining authorisation from UL by attaining a UL stamp on your product drawings, which are inspected by UL field inspectors.
PGDQ2
PGDQ2 is a Marking & Labelling Systems Program that covers labels (nameplates and markers) and label materials.
Labels and label materials accredited under PGDQ2 are tested under the UL969 standard, in accordance with a specific set of criteria, including substrate types, temperatures and exposure conditions. This is to ensure that the labels and label materials used will adhere to the final product, with the safety label information necessary to alert product users of potential hazards remain legible.
Labels that have gone through and passed UL969 testing are called UL Recognised Component Labels.
ISO 9001 CERTIFICATION
ISO 9001 is based on a number of principles that go hand in hand with good business practice. These include focusing on customers, involving all people that affect your business, doing things systematically and continuously looking for ways to improve.
Organisations that implement ISO 9001 are invariably a step ahead of those that don’t. This is because they’re usually more efficient and can pass cost savings onto customers to become more competitive. The systematic and structured approach of ISO 9001 means that staff are motivated as they’re clear about their responsibilities.
