Rande Machell is an IICRC Certified Senior Carpet Inspector. The Certified Senior Carpet Inspector, is the highest level of expertise in the textile industry. Senior carpet inspectors, are qualified to give an expert opinion on all carpet related problems. Inspectors must complete 40-56 hours of classroom study, pass a comprehensive examination, both written and practical, and submit a minimum of ten inspection reports for review by their peers. In addition, They must adhere to the IICRC code of ethics.
IICRC Carpet Inspectors are recognized by all major carpet industry trade associations including the Carpet and Rug Institute (CRI). All four major fiber producers, Dupont, Allied, Monsanto, and BASF, have contributed to the program by recognizing and using IICRC Certified Senior Carpet Inspectors, when expert third party opinions are required.
