What does the CE certificate cover?

The CE marking guarantees that the product on which it is located will not harm human, animal, plant health and safety and the environment, and ensures that a single mark is used throughout the European Economic Area.

The CE marking is a certification mark indicating that products sold in the European Economic Area comply with health, safety and environmental standards. This document is not a quality certificate; products with this certificate prove that they are not harmful to the environment.

The validity period of the CE Certificate can last for 5 years in some product groups and 10 years in others. When this process ends, in order to continue using the mark, the product must be subjected to a new audit in conformity assessment procedures.

The CE Marking indicates that the product has been manufactured and certified in accordance with the EU’s New Approach Directives. In other words, it is a sign that the product has minimum safety requirements in terms of human health, life and property safety, animal and plant life and health, environment and consumer protection.
