Sicherheitserklärungen

Sicherheitserklärungen, in English Safety Declarations, are formal statements that attest to the safety of a product or service. They are often a legal requirement, particularly within regions that have specific regulations concerning product safety, such as the European Union. These declarations are typically issued by the manufacturer or authorized representative of a product.

The purpose of a Sicherheitserklärung is to confirm that the product in question complies with all relevant safety, health, and environmental protection requirements as stipulated by applicable laws and directives. This includes ensuring that the product has been manufactured according to established standards and that any necessary conformity assessments have been successfully completed.

Key information often included in a Sicherheitserklärung comprises the name and address of the manufacturer or their authorized representative, a description of the product, a list of the directives and standards applied, and the signature of the responsible person. This document serves as a crucial part of the product's documentation and is essential for market access. It provides assurance to regulatory bodies, distributors, and end-users that the product meets the necessary safety criteria.
