Ningbo, China – November 2025 — NINGBO SHILI COMMODITY CO., LTD. proudly announces the successful completion of the comprehensive on-site factory audit conducted by NSF International, a critical step toward achieving full NSF/ANSI/CAN 61 certification for Drinking Water System Components – Health Effects.
The audit, performed in November 2025 at the company’s manufacturing facility in Ningbo, included an in-depth evaluation of production processes, quality management systems, raw material control, traceability, potential sources of contamination, formulation documentation, and overall compliance with NSF/ANSI 61 health-effects requirements. NSF auditors conducted a thorough facility walkthrough, interviewed key personnel, reviewed records, and collected representative product samples for independent laboratory extraction and leaching testing.
This successful on-site audit builds directly upon the company’s earlier milestone of obtaining NSF/ANSI 372 lead-content certification in November 2025. Together, these achievements position NINGBO SHILI COMMODITY CO., LTD. to soon offer products certified under both NSF/ANSI 61 (broad health effects, including leaching of multiple contaminants) and NSF/ANSI 372 (lead-free compliance ≤0.25% weighted average), meeting the highest international standards for safe drinking water delivery.
The certification is especially significant in light of increasingly stringent regulatory requirements in North America, including state-level mandates, the U.S. Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA), and Amazon’s 2025 “direct verification” policy for potable water supply products (pipes, hoses, fittings, faucets, etc.).
“This NSF/ANSI 61 factory audit success is a major validation of our manufacturing excellence and unwavering commitment to consumer safety,” said a company spokesperson. “We are dedicated to providing RV owners, campers, and households with drinking water hoses and components that are not only durable and reliable but also verifiably safe from harmful contaminant leaching. We are now finalizing the remaining steps toward complete dual NSF/ANSI 61 + 372 certification.”
NSF International’s rigorous facility audits and certifications are globally recognized as the gold standard for drinking water safety, facilitating market access, retailer acceptance, and enhanced consumer trust across the United States, Canada, and beyond.
