- Australian Standard AS/NZS 9001 (ISO9001) certification is based on the manufacturer operating a quality management system covering all areas of operation including design, manufacture and delivery
- Australian Standard AS/NZS 4020 specifies requirements for products that are in contact with drinking water and defines test methods for evaluating their effect on the quality of the water. The Standard requires that products do not affect the taste or appearance of water; do not support the growth of micro-organisms; and do not release cytotoxic or mutagenic compounds or metals
- Australian Standard AS/NZS 2070 is secondary to AS/NSZ 4020 since it doesn’t apply to the tank itself, but only to the quality procedures to be followed for the manufacture of the plastic resins, granules and powders used to make the tank and which will therefore be in contact with the water.
