July 28, 2025 | TapRen Tech SolutionsEstimated reading time: 1 minute
TapRen, a fast-growing electronics product development partner, has released a comprehensive new guide to UL certification, aimed at helping startups, engineers, and product teams navigate one of the most misunderstood elements of launching hardware products.
Available now on the TapRen blog, the guide breaks down the what, why, and how of UL certification, offering clear answers to questions that often go overlooked until late in development. With very little centralized or digestible information available online, this resource is intended to close a critical knowledge gap for both new and experienced teams working on electrical and electronic products.
“UL certification can be a confusing and frustrating step for teams that are otherwise ready to ship,” said Tejas Tapsale, TapRen Tech Solutions Co-Founder. “We created this guide to demystify the process, lay out what’s required, and help teams plan ahead—so they avoid delays, redesigns, or failed compliance testing down the line.”
The article outlines:
- What UL certification is and why it matters
- Key product categories that require UL
- The steps and documentation needed to prepare
- Common misconceptions that derail certification
- Tips for aligning product design with UL requirements early in the process
Whether teams are preparing for UL 62368, UL 61010, or other relevant standards, the guide provides practical advice that can streamline the process and reduce costly setbacks.
