PRODUCT APPROVAL & CERTIFICATION
The harmonization of technical legislation among European Countries in accordance to the current European Directives Framework, strongly demands guarantees for products’ safety and quality, either the production takes place within Europe or outside EU, making products’ certification a ‘must’ for every producer / commercial mediator / importer of products, that is designated to be active within EU borders.

CE and GS MARKING
The CE mark is a critical indicator, which shows the compliance of a product to the European legislation, and becomes a passport to its free circulation and distribution to the European market. Not all products are covered in the requirement for CE marking, but only the product categories which are explicitly mentioned in the «New Approach» Directives or the «Technical Harmonisation Directives».
The GS Mark on the product means «Geprüg fte Sicherheit» / «Testing for Safety», and certifies that the product meets the requirements of the German legislation on safety, according to the relative regulations, trade unions requirements, DIN and EN standards, as well as to the generally accepted technical regulations.
