WaterMark certification is the primary plumbing product quality certification system used in Australia and New Zealand. It confirms that a product complies with strict plumbing and drinking water safety standards and is approved for use in regulated plumbing systems.
While WaterMark certification is mandatory in Australia, it is not currently mandatory in New Zealand. However, many reputable tapware manufacturers, including Voda Plumbingware, choose to have products tested and certified to these standards to ensure safety, quality, and compliance.
WaterMark certified tapware is tested to meet AS/NZS 3718 and AS/NZS 4020 standards. These standards ensure that tapware used in contact with drinking water does not release harmful levels of metals such as lead, and that products are safe for long-term use in residential homes.
For homeowners, builders, plumbers, and designers, the WaterMark symbol provides confidence that the tapware you are installing meets recognised safety and quality standards for drinking water.
Voda Plumbingware is committed to supplying tapware that meets or exceeds industry standards, including WaterMark certification and lead-free material options such as 304 stainless steel, helping ensure safer water for New Zealand homes.
When choosing tapware for your kitchen, bathroom, or laundry, selecting WaterMark certified products is one of the simplest ways to ensure product quality, compliance, and drinking water safety.
