Associação IEx Certificações is a Brazilian company founded in Rio de Janeiro in October 2008, specializing in the product certification market.
Leveraging the extensive expertise of its founding partners in the oil sector, machinery industry, laboratories, and certification bodies, IEx initially focused on electrical equipment for hazard location.
On March 10, 2009, Associação IEx was accredited by Inmetro’s General Accreditation Coordination under Registration No. OCP 0064.
In late 2010, the company relocated to Alphaville (Barueri/SP) and acquired the Fundação Vanzolini’s certified products, including plugs and sockets, switches, adapters, wires and cables, electrical installations, and electromedical equipment.
In 2011, IEx expanded its certification scope to include a broader range of products such as household appliances, computer goods, ballasts, circuit breakers, LED lamps, lighting fixtures, ovens, fans, and sound power. This expansion allowed IEx to operate comprehensively within the electrical and electronics sector.
Recognized as an independent, medium-sized Brazilian company, IEx is committed to excellence through financial stability and ongoing development of its professional team.
We have our own team of assessors with years of experience in the certification and engineering market and a robust commercial and administrative team qualified and prepared to meet our clients’ diverse demands.
In addition, we partner with leading national and international certification bodies and laboratories in their respective countries to ensure agility and favorable conditions for access to the Brazilian market.
This entire team is governed and managed by our president, Marco Antônio Bucciarelli Roque. He has an extensive background in the industry, having served as Marketing, Sales, and Business Development Director at ABB from 1977 to 1995, where he worked directly in the electrical installations segment. He was General Director of ABS Scanpumps from 1995 to 2003, General Director for Brazil and Latin America at Underwriters Laboratories from 2003 to 2008, and President of NCC from 2008 to 2010 before joining IEx in 2010. Under his leadership, IEx expanded its certification activities with a focus on industrial installations and products.
Marco Antônio Bucciarelli Roque has been a member of ABRAC since its foundation in 2009 and has served as vice-president of products since 2018.
lEx was created not just to be another Certification Body but to reaffirm its commitment to consumer protection. We aim to directly contribute to preserving the lives of citizens who use various electrical products in their homes, as well as those who work with professional equipment in commercial establishments.
Ensure and provide easy access to the market by evaluating the conformity of our clients’ products, guaranteeing the service, quality, and agility required in today’s competitive environment.
