Registering Products for CE Marking
To register your products with CE, you must start with the first step by deciding on a product and model to be CE certified. This process is the product as well as model specific, but the marking process varies if the product design varies.
After deciding on the product, the applicant must identify the CE marking directives that apply to the selected product. Some of these directive names are as follows:
- MD (Machinery Directive)
- LVD (Low Voltage Directive)
- EMCD (Electro-Magnetic Compatibility Directive)
- PED (Pressure Equipment Directive)
- LD (Lift Directive)
- CMD (Construction Machinery Directive)
- TD (Toys Directive)
- MDD (Medical Devices Directive) and more
After that, the applicant must identify the applicable harmonic standards to the products aspiring to be CE marked. Further, the applicant must conduct a risk analysis of the requirements of Directives, bars, and products to be CE certified. It is done to validate compliance against those standards. In addition, the applicant must get the product to be CE marked and tested, both in-house and outside, as per the standard harmonic requirement.
Some products can be marked through self-certification, but such is not the case with every product. You can characterize some products by involving the following entities for CE marking:
- CE Notification Agency
- CE Competent Agency
- CE Competent Body
If self-declaration is not recommended for certain products, you can involve the CE-making registration agencies in the product's design process. After the Technical Construction File preparation, the application is forwarded to the Certification Agency involved in the CE registration procedure.
