Keystone Insulating Glass Certification Program

ANSI National Accreditation Board (ANAB) 17065The Keystone Insulating Glass Certification Program is accredited by the ANSI National Accreditation Board (ANAB). The program is recognized by the National Fenestration Rating Council (NFRC) to provide insulating glass (IG) manufacturers with certifications to both the US and Canadian IG seal durability standards.

The durability of sealed insulating glass products is highly dependent on glass room workmanship and attention to detail. Keystone's experienced staff works with IG Certification Program participants to establish proven quality control procedures, then performs bi-annual audits of licensee IG fabrication operations to ensure those procedures are implemented and sustained.

Certification of IG performance also requires periodic successful tests by a Keystone Recognized Laboratory in accordance with US standard ASTM E2190 "Standard Specification for Insulating Glass Unit Performance and Evaluation", or Canadian standard CGSB 12.8 "Insulating Glass Units".
