Product Safety, Product Compliance & CE

  • •
    Product Classification & Conformity Strategie: We determine the requirements applicable to your product and define how compliance will be demonstrated. We consider EU directives, EU regulations, product standards and other product requirements.
  • •
    CE Compliance & CE Certification: We support you in implementing EU Market Access requirements—from product classification and risk analysis through technical documentation to the EU Declaration of Conformity and CE marking.
  • •
    Technical Documentation: We support risk analyses and assessments, operating instructions, warnings, product markings and declarations of conformity. The technical files are structured in a traceable manner and tailored to the product and process.
  • •
    Usability (UX/UI): We assess operating logic, comprehensibility and user requirements during product development. Good usability increases safety, simplifies instructions, meets customer requirements and is relevant to consumer testing.
  • •
    GS Marking & Type Approval: We support EC component type-approvals and EC type approvals through to approval and fulfilment of subsequent conditions. Where the product category permits it, we consider GS mark requirements during product development and prepare the evidence required for GS testing.
  • •
    We support, among others, the following product groups: Machinery, toys, low-voltage products, household products, construction products, motor vehicles, battery- or radio-operated products, clothing, furniture, tools, PPE, batteries, AI products, medical devices, bicycles and e-bikes.

Manufacturer Obligations & Quality Management

  • •
    Determining Requirements: We determine the appropriate quality management system for your company and products—for example ISO 9001, a KBA initial assessment or ISO 13485. Company-specific requirements and product requirements are combined into an integrated management system.
  • •
    QM Systems for Manufacturers and Service Providers: We support more than manufacturing companies. Appropriate quality management systems can also be useful or necessary for distributors, service providers and other SMEs.
  • •
    Implementation & Audit: We support the establishment, implementation, auditing and correction of your quality management system through certification readiness and accompany further development through recertification.

EU Representative & Authorized Representative

  • •
    EU Representative / Authorized Representative: Depending on the product, appointing an Authorized Representative may be required or advisable. We undertake the corresponding tasks for companies from third countries.
  • •
    EU Market Access: We support the structured implementation of requirements for distribution in the EU, including the necessary communication and documentation.
  • •
    Protection of Trade Secrets: In our cooperation, we consider the manufacturer's interests and the confidential handling of technical and business information.

Production Inspection, CoP & Audits

  • •
    Conformity of Production (CoP): We assess the quality and conformity of your production worldwide. Depending on the assignment, we examine raw materials, supplied components, production steps, functional testing, packaging and shipping.
  • •
    Supplier & Product Audits: We audit suppliers, manufacturers and products worldwide. In addition to product quality and conformity, relevant requirements relating to environmental protection, CSR and supply chains can also be considered.
  • •
    Series Conformity: Product conformity must not arise only through spot testing of the finished product. Robust processes and suitable controls secure reproducible quality during ongoing production.
  • •
    Further Support: We support product recalls, trade fair participation and selected sales tasks.

Training & Seminars

  • •
    Training for Companies: We offer practical training and seminars on EU directives, EU regulations, CE compliance, product safety, manufacturer obligations and quality management.
  • •
    For Whom? Our training is aimed in particular at responsible persons, CE and QM representatives, designers, developers, purchasers and other employees involved in product development, procurement or market access.
  • •
    Practice Instead of Theory: We teach the requirements using concrete products and typical processes from development, purchasing, production and market launch.
