What is WaterMark?

The WaterMark is a certification trademark owned by Standards Australia Limited (ABN 85 087 326 690). Standards Australia is an Australian public company limited by guarantee.

The WaterMark is used in relation to water supply, sewerage, plumbing and drainage goods. The plumbing industry in Australia supports the use of the WaterMark which, when used properly, is an excellent way of helping Australian consumers be confident about the quality of the Plumbing Products to which the WaterMark is applied.

Use of the WaterMark is not limited to goods manufactured in Australia; it may be used on goods that are manufactured outside Australia.

Standards Australia does not grant licenses for the use of the WaterMark directly to users (including manufacturers) of the WaterMark. Instead, it enters into an agreement with certifiers and grants them the right to enter into licence agreements directly with Approved Users for the use of the WaterMark in accordance with the terms of the Approved Certifier Agreement
