ENsertifiointia

ENsertifiointia, often referred to as EN certification, is a voluntary process in Europe that attests to a product's compliance with relevant European standards. These standards, typically developed by European standardization organizations such as CEN, CENELEC, or ETSI, aim to ensure product safety, quality, and interoperability. When a product meets the requirements of an applicable EN standard, it can be awarded EN certification, signifying that it has undergone appropriate testing and assessment.

The EN certification process generally involves a manufacturer declaring their product's conformity with the relevant standards. Depending on the product category and associated risks, this declaration might be supported by independent third-party testing and certification by a notified body. The presence of EN certification allows products to be placed on the European market, as it demonstrates adherence to the harmonized technical requirements. This can also be a prerequisite for applying the CE marking, which is a mandatory conformity marking for products sold within the European Economic Area. EN certification facilitates free movement of goods across member states by establishing common technical specifications.
