CE Marking
What CE Marking is, and who needs it
CE marking is what allows many products to be placed on the market in the European Economic Area. It is worth being precise about what it is: not an ISO certificate and not a quality award, but the manufacturer's own declaration that a product meets the EU legislation applying to it - backed by a technical file you must be able to produce.
The essentials
What the standard asks of you
Market access, not a quality badge
CE marking signals conformity with applicable EU legislation so the product can be placed on the EEA market. It is a legal requirement for covered products, not a marketing claim.
The manufacturer declares
In most cases the manufacturer draws up the Declaration of Conformity and takes responsibility for it - which is why the technical file matters so much.
The right assessment route
Which directives or regulations apply, and which conformity assessment route they allow, depends entirely on the product. Getting this wrong is the usual failure.
Notified Bodies where required
Some product categories require a Notified Body to be involved. We identify whether yours does and help you work with one.
The technical file
Design, testing, risk assessment and instructions, kept available for the required period. Authorities can ask for it.
Common with ISO 9001
Exporters frequently pair CE marking with ISO 9001, because a controlled quality system makes sustaining conformity far easier.
