Enamel Care Cleaner Scheme
VITREOUS ENAMEL ASSOCIATION
CLEANER SCHEME
The Vitreous Enamel Association operates a cleaner scheme whereby cleaning products such as oven cleaners and bath cleaners etc are tested by an independent laboratory on various enamel surfaces soiled with a variety of substances. The enamel surface and the nature of the soil being dependant on the type of cleaner being tested. See List
The 'VEA Approved' Label  |
Only products that have been successfully tested and proved to clean efficiently without damaging the enamel surface are eligible to carry the VEA approved label. |
If the formulation of a cleaner is altered, maybe by the change of perfume, then it must be re-tested prior to marketing if it is to carry the VEA symbol.
The VEA carries out a programme of ‘spot checking’ by having VEA approved products, bought at random, tested to ensure that the qualities necessary for VEA approval are maintained. See List
Manufacturers of enamelled products are being encouraged to include care instructions with their products which recommend the use of VEA approved cleaners, giving members of the cleaner scheme an advantage in the market place.
Manufacturers of cleaning cloths are being encouraged to join the scheme.
