These listings acknowledge member products that have been reviewed and confirmed to meet the Institute’s minimum requirements. Exclusion of any particular product does not necessarily connote its noncompliance, only that its compliance has not been confirmed by the Institute. Minimum product requirements are as established by the Institute’s Manual of Millwork. Burden of proof of a product’s compliance rests on the manufacturer or submitting member firm. Members are encouraged to submit products for review, however the Institute does not search out eligible member products and assumes noresponsibility for any eligible member product omissions.

Product Approval Process

The Service
Certain product types, such as adhesives, hardware and panel products, are reviewed for compliance with the appropriate minimum quality standards found in the Manual of Millwork.

Acknowledgment of a product's approval by letter from the Institute and listing of the product in both our Roster/Resource Guide and on the website is an important service that the Institute performs for manufacturers of high quality products and end-users, like owners and architects.

To receive this product approval, applicant firms must submit a sample of the product complete with technical literature and, in some cases, independent testing confirming that the product complies with the appropriate requirements. Click here to download the submittal form.

The Institute charges an annual product review fee of $500 for each group of submitted products. All approved products must be re-approved on an annual basis for continued listing on the Institute's website. This re-approval will be considered one product submittal group.

The Savings
Product review fees are included within Associate Membership dues. If a firm has approved products and desires their continued listing in the Roster/Resource Guide and/or the website or submits products for approval frequently, these savings on product review fees can be a substantial benefit of an Associate Membership.
