In accordance with the laws and regulations applicable in the European Union, product supplier – manufacturer, his authorized representative or importer, may place on the market products meeting the requirements of the EU directives. This means that the essential safety requirements defined by the directives for different groups of products must be met before the product reaches the market. Declaration of conformity issued by the manufacturer or authorized representative, properly executed conformity assessments and product CE marking are the confirmation of product’s safety.
CE marking refers to products manufactured in EU member countries and new as well as used products imported to the European market from third countries. CE marking is only permitted when demonstrated that the product meets the essential requirements of directives (having undergone the conformity assessment procedure).
Depending on the regulations of the directives and the risk which the product poses, different conformity assessment procedures (modules) are mandatory. In case of the products posing high level of risks, there is a necessity to involve the notification body – an independent institution, so called third party, independent from both the manufacturer and the final user - to participate in the conformity assessment procedure. UDT as a Notified Body No. 1433 is the largest notified body in Central Europe in view of the scope of its activities.
