How to get CE marking - URS Labs

CE Marking is the prime indicator that the product quality complies with the European Union safety, environment, and health protection regulations and directives.

When your product falls under the directive which requires CE marking, there is always a need for ensuring that the product complies with the need and make sure to attach this CE before sending it to the market, especially in the European Economic Area. This is equally important and has validation when your product has been manufactured beyond the EEA. Even when second-hand products when entering the EEA market require the CE for the very first time.

Generally, Marking is defined as a trade passport since it allows the independent movement of products within this European market. Until complete measures are taken which can seamlessly justify that the product complies with the standard, products are restricted to be placed on the CE-marked product. This marking is not an indication that the product is manufactured in the EU and is not also a quality mark.

31 countries require products to have marking before getting part of their market.

What are the responsibilities required for CE marking?

People who have the sole responsibility for CE compliance are:

·        Importer

·        Distributor

·        Authorized Representatives

·        Manufacturer

Manufacturers are responsible for:

·        Drawing up all the technical file

·        Take conformity assessment

·        Attach the CE mark on the products

·        Issue CE DoC

For the importers who are accepting products from any other country, they need to check the manufacturers beyond the EU whether have undertaken all the crucial steps. You require evaluating all the necessary documents. On the other hand, if you are accepting a product from another country and selling it using your name, you need to bear the responsibility as a manufacturer.

For the distributors, there is a need for checking both the CE mark on the products along with the product label, user manual, and several associated documentation.

With the highly knowledgeable auditors of URS, you can now easily get advice on the regulations to be maintained by the bodies who want to get authorized in the European market. Systematic evaluation and knowledge of the requirements of the marking, URS can become guidance for the companies to get the CE marking without facing any hassle and enjoy seamless trading in and across the country.

The Critical Role of Luminaries LED Bulb Testing Laboratories

  For the new generations of lighting devices, LED bulbs can be considered the leaders given the high energy saving, the increased longevity, and the lowest effect on the environment. However, not all the bulbs that fall under this category are equally good. This is where Luminaries and LED Bulb Testing Labs come in, which hold important functions as the enforcers and guarantors of compliance with these lighting solutions. The Need for LED Bulb Testing Investigations into LED bulbs yield rather high efficiency but the quality and efficiency vary greatly. Such characteristics as, luminous efficacy, CRI and life expectancy may vary from one manufacturer to the other. It is then imperative to guarantee that these bulbs meet the set standard since nobody would want to purchase a bulb with poor quality lighting as this is a very sensitive and vital necessity in everyone’s life. Luminaries LED Bulb Testing Labs are the best because they modify and assess these key qualities to deter...

The Complete Guide to EMI/EMC Testing Laboratories Ensuring Electronic Equipment Compliance

Electromagnetic interference (EMI) and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) are critical considerations in the design and manufacturing of electronic devices. EMI/EMC testing labs play a vital role in ensuring that products comply with international electromagnetic emissions and immunity standards.  This guide delves into the functions of EMI and EMC testing labs , what tests they perform, and why they are crucial for maintaining the integrity and functionality of electronic devices in a globally connected world.
