CEmerkinnöissä

CEmerkinnöissä refers to the CE marking, a conformity marking seen on manufactured products sold within the European Economic Area (EEA). This mark signifies that the product has been assessed by the manufacturer and is deemed to meet EU safety, health, and environmental protection requirements. The CE marking is not a quality certification, but rather a declaration by the manufacturer that the product complies with all relevant EU directives and regulations.

The CE marking allows products to be traded freely within the EEA. It is mandatory for a wide range of product categories, including electronics, toys, medical devices, and construction products. The responsibility for ensuring that a product meets the essential requirements lies with the manufacturer. In some cases, a Notified Body, an independent organization designated by an EU country, may be involved in the conformity assessment procedure, particularly for higher-risk products.

The specific requirements for CE marking vary depending on the product category and the relevant EU directives. Manufacturers must identify the directives applicable to their products, carry out or arrange for conformity assessment, and compile a technical documentation file. They then affix the CE marking to the product, its packaging, or accompanying documents, and issue an EU declaration of conformity. This marking demonstrates that the product has undergone the necessary procedures and can be legally sold in the EEA.
