MUMBAI, July 2, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

Strata Geosystems (India) Pvt. Ltd. announced that 'StrataGrid' is now not only a CE certified product but also accredited by the Highway Research Board of Indian Road Congress. 

The certification was issued by the "ENTE CERTIFICAZIONE MACCHINE" in Italy for high-tenacity polyester geogrids manufactured by Strata at its plant at Daman, India and allows the product to be sold in the European market.

CE marking is mandatory for certain product groups. This is to ensure that the product adheres to health, safety and environment standards laid down by the European Union's directives, and henceforth provides access to StrataGrid within the European market.

In addition to evaluation from international and Indian laboratories for all performance parameters, the CE marking assures Strata's ongoing compliance with globally recognized standards for quality management, which is intended to increase customer satisfaction.

With the attainment of a CE mark, the company not only has a better understanding of the needs of the Indian and European market, but is also actively working on the market acceptance of StrataGrid in those countries.
