Speaking during the presentation of Mandatory Conformity Assessment Programme (MANCAP) certificate to a lubricant manufacturing company, Segmax Oil Nigeria Limited, SON Director General, Dr. Ifeanyi Chukwunonso Okeke, also said that the regulatory agency is determined to reinforce consumer confidence in locally manufactured goods.
Represented by the Kwara State coordinator of SON, Mr. Ayeni Feyisayo, the director general explained that monitoring of compliance level will be more rigorous after product certification.
He described Segmax’s achievement as a legacy of excellence and commitment, saying that MANCAP certification of the company marked a milestone in its drive for quality assurance and standardization in the Nigerian lubricant market.
Dolapo Mariam Motunrayo, Head of the Chemical Technology Unit at SON’s Kwara office, emphasised that the certification was only the beginning of a long-term relationship built on quality control.
According to her, “All your products are now certified under MANCAP, but it doesn’t end here. Monitoring will be even more rigorous. This certification is valid until 2028, and we expect continued compliance. We look forward to further engagements through product and test certifications.”;;
