In general, it is the responsibility of the manufacturer to check whether a product falls within the scope of the New Approach Directives and to ensure that such products are marked. If the products are imported from a country outside the European Economic Area, then this responsibility rests with the importing company.
If a product falls within the scope of the New Approach Directives and a notified body must be involved, the evaluation report from the first inspection, the test reports from the laboratory and the test reports from the manufacturer must be submitted to the notified body. The notified body must confirm that the tests, including the evaluation of the test results, are carried out according to the criteria given in the product standard. In this way, it is determined that the tested samples are taken from the product with the certificate of conformity and the factory production control meets the criteria given in the product standard.
The manufacturer can now prepare the European Union declaration of conformity and affix the CE mark on the product.
The CE mark determines the performance characteristics of a product. The relevant directives contain minimum levels of performance, depending on the country or product type. For example, in the world of building materials, the CE mark indicates that the material complies with the relevant specifications. This means that the product meets the six basic objectives of the Construction Products Directive, provided that it is used and maintained correctly. This means that the product meets the requirements of mechanical resistance and stability, safety in case of fire, hygiene, health and environmental conditions, operational safety, noise protection and energy economy. Construction products may only be offered to consumers if they are suitable for their intended use.
It is very important to attach CE marking to the products. In short, the CE marking is a passport for free movement of products. By definition, the CE marking covers all legal requirements that apply within the borders of the European Union and the European Economic Area. The CE mark supports the removal of trade barriers and strengthens the integration of European Union members. This sign helps products to be comparable to consumers and helps to strengthen the market.
A declaration of conformity is an application to verify the conformity of a product to the relevant guidelines in harmonized standards. There are different system options for declaration of conformity. In principle, the manufacturer must submit and sign a declaration of conformity. However, in some cases, depending on the risk levels of the products, the directives may require the notified body to participate in the compliance process.
The New Approach Directives impose an obligation for the manufacturer and its authorized representative established within the borders of the European Union to use a European Union declaration of conformity when the product is placed on the market. The declaration of conformity may cover a single product or several products. The declaration of conformity must be kept in the technical dossier for ten years together with other documents.
The CE marking on the products allows entry into the European Economic Area market for manufacturers, as these countries cannot impose restrictions on CE marked products. The CE marking ensures that the product complies with the relevant directives and is safe for consumers. In this respect, the claims of damages and damages of the manufacturing companies are significantly reduced. Today, the products under the New Approach Directives are not permitted to be placed on the market and to be used by consumers without CE marking.
