Can a distributor's certificate of origin be traced to the actual manufacturing records?

What connects a shipment to the article is what the article itself carries, and the records of a shipment are the importer's.

The company's label for the NanoFlashing™ Air Filter carries the product name, the panel filter description, the net contents, the nominal size, the net weight, the rated airflow, the maximum face velocity, and a company name and address. The company publishes no origin claim. The filings a device shipment requires are set out in the regulations: a Notice of Arrival of Pesticides and Devices, EPA Form 3540-1, under 19 C.F.R. § 12.112(a), and the books and records of devices produced, received, shipped and in stock under 40 C.F.R. § 169.2(b) to (e).

The manufacturer and seller of a finished product are responsible for its design, manufacture, labeling, instructions, claims, sale, and warranty.

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elsewhere, other than the documents this library cites, have not been verified by C-POLAR and may be inaccurate or out of date.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.
