In reply to jimtitt:
I've been in touch with the UIAA and the manufacturer, and it seems you're on the mark here. It seems the manufacturer got UIAA approval for their factory, but let their certification lapse and a dispute seems to have developed out of a name change, from Handy Man to GM, as it seems each company requires a separate UIAA certificate and that GM didn't want to pay to arrange this.
This is from the UIAA: "[We] never received any laboratory documents or papers that the gear [GM] bought was from Handyman. Handyman is an UIAA certified manufacturer, however their Labels have been suspended due to non-payment and we do not have their updated laboratory reports. "
This from GM: "This is the problem that we are negotiating with UIAA. GM is a registered brand in the United States. Our products are produced in our factory in Taiwan named HANDY MAN ENTERPRISE CO., LTD. The certification number is TPE 12-3155 under our factory name. As a matter of fact, we have talked to UIAA to combine two names and we are still on the way solving this problem. We are quite aware of how serious the problem will be."
Interestingly, it appears to me that Handy Man might also be manufacturing the same products for GrandWall, although I've no way of confirming this. GrandWall does have UIAA certification for the products it sells.
