TICK MARK
At the end of 2013 Government announced that the digital radio ‘tick mark’ would be launched for DAB radios and installers. The ‘tick mark’ run by DRUK, will provide consumers with certainty and reassurance that the products and services that they are buying are future-ready and will enable them to receive the available DAB, DAB+ and FM radio stations. From a manufacturer’s perspective, the mark will likely drive sales in the UK.
The tick mark is relevant for both the domestic (home) and in-vehicle markets. In order to be granted use of the tick mark, manufacturers and installers must meet specific criteria. For all information on the tick mark please see here:www.getdigitalradio.com/industry. In terms of the in-vehicle market, for example, service following and traffic announcements are included as part of the minimum specification.
