CE Certification
Being a Notified Body 0799-CPD in its own right and a member in all relevant bodies, the tBU shares responsibility for the regulations of CE certification. In this process, we try to make the certification rules as simple, dependable and feasible as possible.
Besides the actual certification work, our CE certification services for your company range from further education for your people through laboratory equipment consulting, participation in ring tests, information about CE marking, to certification of your internal process check system.
We should be glad to inform you in an interview about our comprehensive range of services.
General remarks on CE Certification
In accordance with the European Construction Products Directive (CPD 89/106/EEC, harmonized with German Law through the “Bauprodukte Gesetz, BauPG”), anyone who intends to have a harmonized construction product in market needs to declare conformance with the European product standards and the company-specific data sheets (Declaration of Conformity). These products are marked with the CE symbol.
Harmonized standards were published at
http://europa.eu.int/comm/enterprise/newapproach/ standardization/harmstds/reflist/construc.html or http://www.cenorm.be/newapproach
in April 2001.
That means, it was not before the 30th September 2002 that the coexistence of national and CE symbols ended, and hence the CE symbol needs to be attached to the product since the 1st October 2002. The declaration of conformity of the product launcher rests on product characteristics (mean value and tolerance) which the company (or an external supplier) has determined as well as on the certification of the company’s internal process check system by a so-called “Notified Body” (NB) as named internationally by the German DIBt. The tBU is the Notified Body 0799-CPD, the certificates produced by the tBU can be downloaded from this website.
