Saudi Arabian Standards Organization (SASO) has begun enforcement of “Technical Regulation for Water Rationalization Tools” and a SASO Water Efficiency Labelling program for faucets, showers, and toilets based on their water efficiency (high or low) consumption rates. Manufacturers, importers, and exporters are now under obligation to label their products in line with the SASO Water Efficiency Labelling program before importing them to Saudi Arabia.
The regulations set by SASO on the category of products aim to preserve water as a resource and the national economy in addition to reducing costs adhered to by consumers. Water efficiency label regulations cover showers, faucets, water closets, bidets, taps, shower heads, and flush taps.
