Together, they develop and publish standards that ensure safety, quality, and interoperability of products and services across Europe. The organization plays a crucial role in facilitating trade and enhancing consumer protection by providing a framework for technical specifications. By harmonizing standards, CEN-CENELEC helps businesses operate more efficiently and supports innovation, ultimately benefiting both manufacturers and consumers in the European market.
