UL-STR IS NOW UL. Our integration into the UL family of companies is complete, and this page will be moved to the Factory Capability and Quality Audits Service page on UL.com. Please update your bookmarks accordingly.

A factory’s ability to deliver a quality product while being fair to its workers and the environment is now an essential part of a viable brand. By ensuring your business partners share your operational, social and environmental values, you can manage risk to your brand equity. An UL-STR audit leaves nothing to chance. It assesses all the critical points in the sourcing process to help ensure a factory meets quality, safety, legal and social standards while making certain they have the best ability to produce your product.

  • Factory capability audit – Assurance that manufacturing capacity, quality requirements and scheduling can be met.
