NSF International (National Sanitation Foundation)

NSF International, originally known as the National Sanitation Foundation, is an independent organization that develops public health and safety standards for food, water, and consumer products. Founded in 1944, it tests and certifies products to ensure they meet stringent health and safety requirements. This includes everything from kitchen appliances to water filters. NSF certification helps consumers identify products that are safe and reliable, giving them peace of mind about the quality of what they use in their daily lives. The organization operates globally, promoting sustainability and public health through rigorous standards and science-based research.
