Any product which is manufactured under the European
Directive and is marketed as such must bear the
CE marking. This is a legal requirement. By applying
the CE mark the manufacturer acknowledges that
his product meets the European Standards and
EU Directives.
A
CE mark is not an approval but a self certification
by the manufacturer.
In most cases testing, system assessments and technical
file assessments will be mandatory. This varies from
directive to directive and sometimes
within directives.
Beware !
If you claim your product complies with the standards
and directives and it does not, your product will be
pulled of the marked and you can be prosecuted.
With the new ENEC Certification one can avoid
much trouble. Because you are automatically recognized
at 18 member agencies by submitting at only one agency
of you choice.
