About ZED

Addressing the nation on India's 68th Independence Day, Hon'ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi urged the industry, especially the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) of India, to manufacture goods in the country with "zero defects" and to ensure that the goods have "zero effect" on the environment. "We should manufacture goods in such a way that they carry zero defect and that our exported goods are never returned to us. We should manufacture goods with zero effect that they should not have a negative impact on the environment".

"ZED certificate has various different certificates combined together in one place which otherwise we have to get from different agencies and different certificates. If we take ZED certificate then we won't need to go for various multiple certificates and there are many processes which are not available in other certificates but are available in ZED."

Mr. Satyavir Singh

"Awareness is the highlight of this program. There were a lot of techniques that we didn't know existed and if implemented correctly, these will give you huge profits. We got to know this because of ZED. I highly recommend ZED certification to all MSMEs."
