RCM certification is a crucial aspect of ensuring that digital signage products are compliant, safe, and reliable in markets like Australia and New Zealand. At TINNOX, we make sure that all our products, from LED video walls to digital kiosks, carry the Regulatory Compliance Mark (RCM), which ensures that they meet strict electrical safety, electromagnetic interference (EMI), and radio frequency (RF) standards.
RCM certification guarantees that our signage products do not interfere with other electronic devices and operate safely in both public and private spaces. This is especially critical for industries such as education, government, and healthcare, where failure or malfunction could lead to disruptions in essential services.
In addition to safety, C-Tick certification ensures that our digital signage products limit radio frequency emissions, preventing interference with other electronic equipment. This is particularly important in urban environments or locations with heavy electronic activity, such as airports or large corporate campuses.
Choosing non-RCM-certified products can lead to serious complications, especially in environments where compliance is crucial, such as government, education, and healthcare. One of the biggest risks of using non-compliant products is during an insurance review. If a non-certified product causes an electrical fault or another hazard, insurance companies may reject the claim entirely. Even if the supplier has public liability insurance, the lack of product certification could result in delays, leaving the business to shoulder the costs of repairs or replacements. This not only leads to financial losses but also consumes valuable time and resources.
At TINNOX, our products are clearly labelled and certified, making them easy for electricians to work with and ensuring that we can offer reliable support throughout the lifespan of the signage. Companies that lack this level of compliance may struggle to provide timely assistance when issues arise, creating further complications down the line.
Why it Matters at All Levels:
RCM certification ensures that TINNOX products are not just visually impressive but also meet stringent safety and performance standards. While RCM covers the product level, ISO certifications ensure company-wide quality, and the licensing of our installation teams guarantees that each product is installed professionally.
