C.E. MARKING
C.E. MARKING
On commercial products, the letters CE (as the logo CЄ) mean that the manufacturer or importer affirms the good’s conformity with European health, safety, and environmental protection standards. It is not a quality indicator or a certification mark. The CE marking is required for goods sold in the European Economic Area (EEA) but is also found on products sold elsewhere that have been manufactured to EEA standards.
The CЄ mark indicates that the product may be traded freely in any part of the European Economic Area, regardless of its country of origin. It consists of the CE logo and, if applicable, the four-digit identification number of the notified body involved in the conformity assessment procedure. “CE” is the abbreviation of “conformité européenne” (French for “European conformity”).
