A key provision of the European Directive on product safety is the obligation for manufacturers to place only safe products on the market. Proper and independent certification facilitates the demonstration of the products’ compliance with applicable safety criteria.

Furthermore, product certification is a tool that helps businesses:

• Improve the overall quality of the product.
• Enhance the organization of production, ultimately reducing costs and improving resource management.
• Aid in marketing for the promotion of products.
• Strengthen the reputation of branded manufacturers.
• Open up international markets.
