The CE mark is a certification that indicates a product meets European Union (EU) safety, health, and environmental protection standards. It is required for many products sold within the European Economic Area (EEA), ensuring they comply with EU legislation. The mark allows for the free movement of goods within the EEA. Manufacturers are responsible for ensuring their products meet the necessary requirements before affixing the CE mark. This process may involve testing, quality assurance, and documentation. The CE mark helps consumers identify products that are safe and compliant with EU regulations, promoting trust in the marketplace.
