What our clients say about us

"At Pure, delivering joyful designs with quality and longevity is at the heart of what we do. With our latest internet radio products, meeting the stringent Cyber Resilience standards was essential to ensure customer peace of mind and create a platform built to last. We chose SafeShark because of their historic connection to DAB and D-Tick compliance via the DTG, their local UK-based support, and their ability to address complex technical queries as the EN18031 standard evolved. Having assessed alternative options, SafeShark stood out as a true solutions partner, providing invaluable expertise and fostering a solid partnership that gave us confidence throughout the product design process."

Ian Knowles, Engineering Director, Pure International

“We are a distributor for products that were affected by this new standard and the manufacturer did not have approvals, so we decided to obtain it ourselves. Safeshark was introduced to us by one of our customers and after initial discussions I could tell they really knew their stuff. Safeshark was professional, easy to contact and knowledgeable. Their full service and excellent ongoing customer service is second to none.”

Tracey Rawlinson, Managing Director, Keystone Electronics

As a smart home automation products supplier in the UK, ensuring our products meet the necessary compliance standards is crucial for our business.

After evaluating various options, we chose SafeShark due to their comprehensive approach to PSTI compliance testing. SafeShark offered a user-friendly way that simplified the complex process of compliance testing and their reputation for reliability and expertise played a significant role in our decision.

From the outset, their team was readily available to help us navigate any technical issues, ensuring a smooth and efficient testing process. Their detailed reporting and clear guidance on compliance requirements made the entire process much more manageable than other providers.

Their unwavering support, ease of use, expertise and dedication mean SafeShark has been an invaluable partner in our journey towards PSTI compliance, and we highly recommend their services to any business looking to ensure their products meet the highest standards of security and privacy.

Jitendra Sakhrani, Director, Ener-J

LG's product development and innovation platform seeks to ensure that all its technological advancements are future-ready and have consumer safety and security as a core priority. SafeShark certification is a critical first step, to ensure we are prepared for future UK and EU legislation, which mandates that manufacturers must prove they have met cyber security performance requirements before being able to sell their products.

LGEUK President Mr B.S. Lee

SafeShark's fast response times, flexibility, and excellent communication have made them a trusted ally in securing our IoT products in line with the new legislation. We wholeheartedly recommend SafeShark to any organisation seeking a reliable and efficient compliance partner for connected devices.
