What happens if I dont certify my product prior to sale and distribution in the US?
If you sell or distribute non-compliant laser products in the U.S. you will be required to undertake a Corrective Action program to fix this problem. Corrective Actions usually require a recall with one or more of the following actions: • The manufacturer refunds the full sale price of the unit. • The manufacturer repairs each unit free of cost to the customer. • The manufacturer purchases each unit back from the customers. It is not uncommon for manufacturers to spend several hundred thousand dollars on Corrective Action programs.
