Many products must bear a CE marking before they can be placed on the European Union (EU) market. It indicates that a product has been assessed by a notified body and that it meets the EU’s safety, health, and environmental protection requirements. CE marking is mandatory for products manufactured anywhere in the world that are intended for sale in the EU. 

Thanks to their in-depth knowledge of European standards (CEN) and international standards (ISO), CTC’s experts can assess your products’ compliance based on your target markets and countries. 

CTC has issued more than 50,000 CE certificates for safety footwear, gloves and protective clothing. We have been one of the very first PPE notified bodies since 1990, assigned number 0075, and operating in accordance with ISO 17065 standard.
