A jury has awarded $6 million to a Pittsburgh company that claimed the China-based labs of a product-testing firm did not correctly test space heaters to ensure compliance with American safety standards.

In Brand Marketing Group v. Intertek Testing Services N.A., a case in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania, a jury handed up the $6 million award March 7 in favor of plaintiff Brand Marketing Group, a company that markets and sells consumer products.
