On January 20, 2009, HydraBrush Inc. received certification for the successful registration of its Quality Management System for its power toothbrush and brush heads to both the ISO 13485:2003 standard, and the requirements of the Canadian Medical Devices Conformity Assessment System (CMDCAS). The Canadian Medical Device Regulations require compliance with ISO 13485:2003 as well as regulations specific to Canada. Registration and certification was awarded by the British Standards Institute.
The registration followed an intensive audit of the Company'ss quality management system, performed by a representative of BSI through the latter half of 2008. The BSI auditor examined
the Company'ss quality policy, objectives, operating procedures, record keeping, and interviewed on-site staff.
On March 2, 2009, HydraBrush Inc. was officially granted a Medical Device License by Health Canada. HydraBrush is considered a Class 2 medical device in Canada, thus a license is
mandatory prior to entering the market.
We are elated and proud to achieve the 13485 certification, as it demonstrates that our quality management system can produce medical devices that meet the applicable regulatory
requirements and our customers's needs, said Ken Hegemann, HydraBrush President and CEO. The certificate conveys to our customers and the financial community that we have a system in
place that demonstrates our total commitment to the highest standards of quality control. This significant accomplishment enables us to provide the international market with the latest
advancements in oral care. Certification to ISO 13485 and obtaining the Canadian Medical Device License adds value to our marketing efforts, and puts us in an ideal position to realize
commercial adoption of our products internationally.
