CE Marking.

REMA

"CE marking is a key indicator of a product’s compliance with EU legislation and enables the free movement of products within the European market. By affixing the CE marking on a product, a manufacturer is declaring, on his sole responsibility, conformity with all of the legal requirements to achieve CE marking and therefore ensuring validity for that product to be sold throughout the EEA, the 27 member states of the EU and European Free Trade Association countries - Iceland, Norway, Liechtenstein and Turkey."

While many customers require products to be CE marked, Temporary Road Safety Equipment is an area where the products are not required to be CE marked. Therefore Melba Swintex has no need to CE mark the majority of it's products.
