Learning about the CE Certification.
CE Marking or CE Compliance means that a product conforms to the technical requirements of the directives concerning health safety and protection of the environment set for products sold within the European Economic Area (EEA). This certification is important in that it guarantees that products are safe for use by consumers, and also meet the requirements of the European union allowing manufacturers to sell their products within the EU. The CE mark is a technical conformity mark of products where the products are required to meet the specific requirements of the European Union directives.
