Is Works with WELL a product certification?
No, Works with WELL is not a product declaration or certification mark, nor is it meant to suggest that a product with this mark guarantees the achievement of WELL Certification or a WELL Rating. The Works with WELL validation process involves application and documentation review; there is no product testing or laboratory testing involved in the validation process. Further, grant of a license to use the mark does not guarantee compliance with applicable legal or regulatory requirements. The mark is meant to indicate a product can contribute to achievement of a specific strategy in WELL.What will this mark represent?
Works with WELL is a new trademark for use by manufacturers to show when their products align with features in the WELL Building Standard. It will be accompanied by a product-specific QR code that will explain which features the product is aligned with. With or without the mark, manufacturers may still use factual words that accurately explain how their products contribute to WELL features.Tell me more about the name of the program, Works with WELL.
