that either claim to, or are tested to comply
with AICC guidelines. The two logos are called
"Designed to AICC Guidelines and "AICC
Certified"

Compliance Program
This logo is available to any vendor who pays a
nominal fee. (self-policing by the vendor)
This logo is available only to products that
have been tested compliant in an AICC Independent
Test Lab.
Both logos are required to have a list of the
supported AGR's on the product packaging and/or
