The importance and meaning of the CE    mark

What is a CE mark?

CE marking is a legal requirement in the EU and involves a lot more than simply sticking a CE sticker onto a product.

CE marking on a product is a manufacturer’s declaration that the product complies with the essential requirements of the relevant European health, safety and environmental protection legislation, in practice by many of the so-called product directives  

CE marking on a product indicates to governmental officials that the product may be legally placed on the market in their country.

CE marking on a product ensures the free movement of the product within the EFTA & European Union (EU) single market

CE marking on a product permits the withdrawal of the non-conforming products by customs and enforcement/vigilance authorities.


Why should I be interested in the CE mark when buying the product?

In practice, CE marking means those products should work well together with other appliances used in a house and not interfere with other radio systems and mainly be safe to use. In the EU, installers are obliged to use CE marked products for installations. Failure to comply could result in fines and/or imprisonment due to the safety consequences of using non-compliant equipment.

Simply speaking, a CE mark on a product, along with proper installation and usage assures your safety.
