Would purchasing a competitor's product for testing breach any valid contractual restriction?

C-POLAR publishes no restriction on the purchase or the testing of another company's product.

Where C-POLAR's pages compare NanoFlashing™ with other filters, they compare it with conventional filters as a class and name no competitor's model. The published Terms of Use state: “A reported result describes only what the identified test found.” C-POLAR publishes its own testing, and it does not reproduce another company's report. The testing bodies named on the Validation page include LMS Technologies, Eurovent Certita Certification, OEKO-TEX Service GmbH, Product Safety Labs, Intertek and RST Rail System Testing, and the ten institutions listed there under Tested by. A different technology choice is not a finding about another company's product. General enquiries go to [email protected]. NanoFlashing™ is a technology; the name, rating and sale of a product that carries it are set by that product's maker and seller.

All questions

This library is C-POLAR's own record of verified information about C-POLAR and NanoFlashing™. Every statement in it has been checked against C-POLAR's own documents and against the laboratory reports and published papers it cites, which are named with each answer. Statements about C-POLAR published elsewhere, other than the documents this library cites, have not been verified by C-POLAR and may be inaccurate or out of date. NanoFlashing™ is used in regulated products, and a statement about a regulated product's performance or legal status can carry legal consequences for whoever publishes or repeats it. Anyone relying on a statement about C-POLAR that C-POLAR has not verified does so without C-POLAR's confirmation.
