China Quality Certification Center (hereafter referred to as CQC) formulates and publishes the Detailed Rules according to the requirements of the Rules and the relevant requirements of its documents such as quality manual, procedure document and operation instructions and in line with the principles of maintaining the effectiveness of product certification, improving product quality, serving for certification enterprises, controlling the certification risk, etc.
The Detailed Rules is prepared according to the requirements of the Rules and shall be used jointly with the Rules. The applicable product scope and certification basis of the Detailed Rules are consistent with the relevant requirements of the Rules and are subject to adjustment according to the announcement on catalogue definition and adjustment issued by the Certification and Accreditation Administration of the People's Republic of China (hereinafter referred to as CNCA).
CQC specifies the implementation requirements for compulsory product certification of safety glass products through establishing requirements for classified management of manufacturing enterprises according to the requirements of the Rules and in combination with classification of manufacturing enterprises.
2. Terms and Definitions
2.1 Evaluation of Production Conformity Control
The evaluation of production conformity control for safety glass products in the Detailed Rules includes inspection on enterprise quality assurance capacity and product conformity; the evaluation of production conformity control is aimed at guaranteeing the conformity between the batch-produced glass and the CQC-approved product.
3. Principles for Classification of Manufacturing Enterprises
CQC acquires and reorganizes all kinds of information relevant to the quality of certified product and its manufacturing enterprise so as to classify manufacturing enterprises accordingly. The certification client, producer (manufacturer) and manufacturing enterprise shall coordinate with CQC.
CQC classifies the manufacturing enterprises into four categories which are expressed as A, B, C and D respectively.
The quality information on which manufacturing enterprise classification is based contains at least the following aspects:
① Factory inspection (including initial factory inspection and post-certification follow-up inspection) results;
② Type test and supervision sampling testing (production site sampling) results;
③ Results of random inspection in national or provincial quality supervision, CCC special supervision inspection, etc.;
④ Coordination of certification client, producer (manufacturer) and manufacturing enterprise in post-certification supervision;
⑤ Media exposure and the quality information feedback of product user and public;
⑥ Quality condition of certified product;
⑦ Other information.
See Table 1 for the principles for classification of manufacturing enterprises.
Table 1 Principles for Classification of Manufacturing Enterprises
Category Classification principle
A The enterprises meeting all of the following conditions can be listed as Category A enterprises through comprehensive risk assessment by the certification authority:
The enterprises have passed and there is no nonconforming item found in the quality assurance capacity inspection and product conformity inspection for two consecutive years; there is no rejected product testing and/or inspection; the conclusion of all random inspections in national and provincial quality supervision and CQC special supervision inspection is "qualified"; there is no product quality complaint and/or event resulting in adverse effect on the society;
B Other manufacturing enterprises except those of Categories A, C and D
Manufacturing enterprises without any quality information are classified into Category B by default
C Manufacturing enterprise meeting any of the following conditions can be listed as Category C:
(1) Conclusion of factory inspection is judged as "site verification";
(2) There is media exposure about product quality problem for the reason of enterprise, but the problem is not serious enough to result in suspension of certificate;
(3) The manufacturing enterprise needs to be adjusted to Category C as considered by CQC as per the result of comprehensive evaluation on the relevant quality information of manufacturing enterprise and certified product.
(4) The enterprises pass the initial application after two times or more retests.
(5) According to other information, the enterprises shall be listed as Category C through comprehensive evaluation.
D Manufacturing enterprise meeting any of the following conditions can be listed as Category D:
(1) Conclusion of factory inspection is judged as "rejected";
(2) The result of sampling testing is "unqualified", and such disqualification will affect product safety performance;
(3) Reject inspection and/or supervision sampling without justifiable reasons;
(4) There is media exposure for the reason of enterprise, and it has a great effect on product quality;
(5) The conclusion of national and provincial random inspections, 3C special inspection, etc., is "unqualified" and is caused by the quality problem of enterprise.
CQC will determine the classification result (category) of manufacturing enterprises according to the above classification principles based on various quality information acquired in real time.
Manufacturing enterprises without any quality information, entrusting certification for the first time, are classified into Category B by default. In principle, the result (category) of manufacturing enterprise classification must be gradually upgraded in the sequence of D-C-B-A while degraded in the sequence of A-B-C-D, or directly adjusted to corresponding category after risk assessment.
4. Selection of Certification Mode
Basic certification mode: type test + initial factory inspection + post-certification supervision.
In the above-mentioned basic certification mode, initial factory inspection is evaluation of production conformity control (enterprise quality assurance capacity and product conformity inspection). Post-certification supervision mode is any one or combination of post-certification follow-up inspection, sampling testing or inspection on production site and market sampling testing or inspection.
5. Certification Unit Division
Certification unit division shall comply with the Attachment 1 of the Rules for the Implementation of Compulsory Product Certification - Safety Glass (CNCA-C13-01:2004).

6.2 Certification Time Limit
Generally, certificate will be issued within 90 days since the acceptance of certification entrustment, covering time for type test and initial factory inspection, submittal time for post-inspection report (if applicable), certification result evaluation and approval date, as well as certificate fabrication time. As for insulated safety glass for building, due to its long experimental period, such a certificate will be issued within 120 days since the acceptance of certification entrustment.
The duration for completing the certification activities above excludes that for correction, retest and inspection. CQC shall inform the client of the nonconformity with certification requirements and give the reason.
Certification process and time limit not specified in the Detailed Rules are subject to the requirements of related procedure documents and operation instructions of CQC. CQC shall control the certification time limit according to the requirements of relevant procedure documents and operation instructions so as to complete related work and the certification client, producer and the manufacturing enterprise shall work in coordination.
If certification is overtimed resulting from delayed certification activities due to the certification client, producer and manufacturing enterprise themselves, it shall not be counted into the certification time.
