For retailers
Let every shelf claim resolve to evidence.
The seal is the entry point. Its award ID opens the exact product, the category benchmark, the score, the validity, the report — and whether the manufacturer was involved at all.
EPEI / INDEPENDENCEVerify the current status and exact model before publishing the claim.
From evidence to a claim buyers can check
- 01
Check
Match the printed award ID to the product variant and current register status.
- 02
Explain
Link customers directly to the benchmark result and evidence record.
- 03
Monitor
Expiry, suspension, reassessment and revocation remain visible instead of disappearing silently.
Where money comes in
Most awards were never paid for.
Every assessment is free, whether we chose the product ourselves or a manufacturer asked us to look at it. A pass is published either way. The only fee is the optional 12-month licence, which buys the right to advertise with the seal — never the result.
