AlkoSafe Certifications & Quality Standards

AlkoSafe is manufactured to international quality standards backed by independent certification. This page explains what each certification means and how to verify our claims.

Certification

CE Mark — European Conformity

What this certification covers and what it means for you as a buyer.

The CE Mark is the manufacturer’s declaration that AlkoSafe meets the health, safety, and environmental protection requirements of applicable European directives. CE marking allows a product to be placed on the market in the EU and Turkey.

For AlkoSafe, CE marking means the product has been evaluated for safety and performance, the manufacturing processes meet European standards, and technical documentation is maintained for regulatory inspection.

CE marking creates legal accountability — if a CE-marked product causes harm due to non-compliance, the manufacturer bears full legal responsibility.

Quality Standard

ISO 13485:2016

ISO 13485:2016 is the internationally recognised standard for quality management systems in the medical device industry. It specifies requirements for a quality management system where an organisation needs to demonstrate its ability to provide medical devices and related services that consistently meet customer and applicable regulatory requirements.

AlkoSafe is manufactured under an ISO 13485:2016 certified quality management system. This means every stage — from raw material sourcing to final packaging — is controlled, documented, and auditable.

Materials

Swiss & German-Grade Materials

The core reactive membrane in every AlkoSafe strip is nitrocellulose sourced from Sartorius (Germany) and treated with reagents from Merck (Switzerland/Germany). These are the same suppliers used in European hospital-grade diagnostic devices.

By using the same raw materials as professional laboratory tests, AlkoSafe achieves clinical-grade sensitivity in a consumer-friendly format. Every incoming material batch is tested and documented before production begins.

Important: AlkoSafe is a personal screening tool for individual decision-making. It is not a substitute for official law enforcement breathalyser or blood tests. A negative AlkoSafe result cannot be used to challenge a positive police test in court. If AlkoSafe shows any colour change, do not drive. Always wait at least 15 minutes after eating, drinking, or smoking before testing.
