We are a Notified Body for providing the necessary testing and certification to CE mark doorsets, windows and glass.
CE marking is the preferred method to prove compliance with the Construction Products Directive (CPD). Compliance is a legal requirement for manufacturers to place their products on the market in Europe.
CE marking:
- Enables a product to be legally placed on the market within any member state of the EEA
- Is the responsibility of the manufacturer, agent or authorised representative
- Is not a Quality Mark – third party certification will retain its role as a value added service
In the UK, CE marking is not mandatory for construction products, BUT:
- The government expects that all products will be CE marked in order to provide presumption of conformity, parity with competitors and enhanced market confidence.
- Construction products will be legally required to demonstrate compliance with the CPD and the most effective way to do this is through CE marking.
Manufacturers wishing to export to any of the other Member States will be required to meet CE marking requirements and their products bear the mark.
