How PCAS Adds Value
PCAS assists companies in obtaining textile product registration and certification through the government-regulated SASO, SALEEM or SABER platform, ensuring that technical reports, product information, and sustainability credentials are well-prepared and submitted. SABER Certification for textile products, garments, and fabrics requires proper documentation such as product photos, data sheets, and testing reports. Undergarments and baby wear, which fall under Type C, also require factory audits in addition to testing and document review. PCAS guides you through every step of this certification journey to ensure smooth and compliant approval.
Our skilled staff collaborates with companies to oversee the entire certification process. Through PCAS, companies receive the assurance of compliance, sidestep expensive shipment delays, and position their textile products for sustained prosperity.
