If you are confused about the CE marking legislation, then look no further. We have all the information that you will need for CE marking.
CE labels are to be displayed on many products that comply with the EU safety, health and environmental requirements. These are placed on many products that are traded on the single market in the EEA (European Economic Area).
When CE labels are displayed on products it shows and reassures manufacturers that these products have been checked, and meet the EU safety, health and environment requirements. These can then allow free movement of products within the European market. This also applies to products manufactured in Third Countries and are sold in the EEA and in Turkey.
What products need CE marking?
Products needing CE marking are those subject to specific directives that provide for the CE marking are required to have the CE label on them. This does not mean that the product was made and manufactured in the EEA, however states that the product is assessed before being placed on the market.
CE marking applies to a range of products from electrical equipment to toys, civil explosives and medical devices. Some products are excluded from CE marking such as chemical, pharmaceutical and cosmetic and foodstuff products.
