CE Marking for manufacturers - Part 1

CE Marking for manufacturers


What the CE marking meant?

The CE marking is a key indicator (but not a proof) that a product complies with EU legislation and enables the free movement of them within the Union.
  • The CE marking indicates the conformity of the product with the Union legislation applying to the product and providing for CE marking.
  • The CE marking is affixed on products that will be placed on the EEA market, whether they are manufactured in the EEA or in another country.
    CE marking does not indicate that a product was made in the European Union. The CE marking indicates conformity with the requirements laid down by the Union harmonization directives in question. Therefore, it is to be considered as essential information to Member States' authorities as well as other relevant parties.

Who must affix the CE marking?

  • The CE marking is affixed by the manufacturer (established inside or outside the Union), or by his authorized representative established within the Union.
  • By affixing the CE Marking the manufacturer declares on his sole responsibility that the product conforms to all applicable Union legislative requirements and that the appropriate conformity assessment procedures have been successfully completed.
The manufacturer, whether established inside or outside the Union, is the entity ultimately responsible for the conformity of the product with all of the legal requirements to achieve CE marking with the provisions of the Union harmonization legislation.
The manufacturer may appoint an authorized representative in the EU to affix the CE marking on his behalf.

Where the CE Marking be affixed?

The CE marking must be affixed visibly, legibly and indelibly to the product or to its data plate. However, where this is not possible or not warranted on account of the nature of the product, it must be affixed to the packaging, if any, and/ or to the accompanying documents.

When the CE marking be affixed?

The CE marking may not be affixed until the conformity assessment procedure has been completed to ensure that the product complies with all the provisions of the relevant Union harmonization acts. This will usually be at the end of the production phase.

The penalties for non-compliance

Compliance with the "CE Marking" directives is mandatory. An offense will be constituted if:

  • The marking is affixed to a product that does not comply with the essential health and safety requirements.
  • A product covered by one of the directives providing for the CE marking is placed on the market without marking
  • A product is CE marked, although it does not fit into any "CE Marking" directive.
    The EU declaration of conformity is not presented in the case of control.

The nature of the CE marking

It consists of the initials CE according to a graphic codified and defined in exactly the same way in each directive, corresponding to the pictogram at left.
The CE marking must be affixed visibly, legibly and indelibly to the product or to its data plate. The requirement for visibility means that the CE marking must be easily accessible for all parties. It could, for instance, be affixed on the back or underside of a product. A minimum height of 5 mm is required to ensure that it is legible. Source: Blue Guide 2016
