As a NON-European Personal Protective Equipment Manufacturer exporting to Europe, does your product require CE-Marking?

 
It is left up to the Manufacturer to determine the applicability of the Directives to their product as well as the product classification. Determining whether your product needs CE Marking requires familiarity with the 89/686/EEC European Directives' definition of Category I, Category II, and Category III Equipment.

Personal Protective Equipment is considered to have the following intention:


"any device or appliance designed to be worn or held by an individual for protection against one or more health and  safety hazards." (89/686/EEC Art.1, 2)

Bearing this in mind, products are then categorized by seriousness of injury, should it occur.

WE SUGGEST

Obelis European Authorized Representative will assist you in determining if your products require CE Marking as well as steps tailored to your company's product(s).
