Introduction to Various Certifications
CE Mark [European Union]

CE Mark [European Union]

The CE mark is a safety certification mark, regarded as the passport for manufacturers to open and enter the European market. Products entering the member states of the European Union should comply with the corresponding regulatory requirements and be affixed with the "CE" mark. Products bearing the CE mark can be sold within the member states of the European Union, thus realizing the free circulation of goods within the scope of the EU member states. In the European Economic Area (comprising member states of the European Union and the European Free Trade Association) market, the use of the CE mark is on the rise. Goods with the CE mark affixed indicate that they meet a series of requirements set forth in European directives regarding safety, hygiene, environmental protection, and consumer protection.
