what is the ce mark?
The CE Mark is a product certification mark that is placed on products compliant to the New Approach Directives of the European Union. The CE Mark is required for manufacturers (from anywhere in the world) wishing to sell their products into the European Union. The CE Mark proves to buyers that the product fulfills all the essential safety and environmental requirements as defined in the European Directives. The CE Marking Directive (93/68/EEC) was adopted on 07-22-1993. The CE Marking Directive gives a detailed description of the initials CE and any other marks specific to a particular directive and the ways conformity may be acquired. In return for fulfilling the CE Marking requirements, the manufacturer (or its agents) is able to market the product across the entire European market with only one approval procedure.
