Verified Compliance with All New Zealand Regulations
The New Zealand Insoluble Fuel Disposal Agency (NZIFDA) is an independent industry authority that establishes and maintains professional standards in the fuel contamination remediation sector. The NZIFDA Mark is the official certification symbol that identifies compliant operators authorized to provide fuel contamination remediation services in New Zealand.
When you see the NZIFDA Mark, you can be confident that the operator:
Under New Zealand law, you as the generator of contaminated fuel are responsible for ensuring it is handled by properly licensed operators. Using an uncertified or unlicensed operator can expose you to:
You may be held liable for environmental violations if waste is improperly disposed of. Fines can reach up to $300,000 for companies.
You may face fines and penalties for using unlicensed waste disposal services, and may be responsible for cleanup costs if environmental damage occurs.
You may void insurance coverage if work is performed by unlicensed operators, leaving you without protection.
You may have no legal recourse if the work is performed incorrectly by uncertified operators.
â Protect yourself: Only use operators displaying the NZIFDA Mark. This ensures proper licensing, insurance, and compliance with all New Zealand regulations.
