CE marking (French abbreviation “Conformité Européenne”) is a special mark applied to the product which certifies that the product complies with the basic requirements of the EU directives and the harmonized standards of the European Union, as well as that the product has passed the procedure for assessing compliance with the directives. The CE marking indicates that the product is not harmful (dangerous) to the health of its consumers, as well as harmless to the environment.
The CE mark is the only mark in the countries of the European Union confirming the compliance of products with European safety standards for humans, property and the environment. Products that do not meet the requirements of this standard cannot be admitted to the internal market of the European Union.
As for Plyterra Group plywood, this certificate attests that all provisions concerning the assessment and verification of constancy of performance described in Annex ZA of the standard EN 13986:2004+A1:2015 under system 2+ are applied and that the product fulfills all the prescribed requirements set out above.
This certificate will remain valid as long as neither the harmonized standard, the construction product, the AVCP methods nor the manufacturing conditions in the plant are modified significantly, unless suspended or withdrawn by the notified product certification body.
The mark can be applied to the product itself or to the packaging – this solution is provided for some product categories. Also, the marking may be present on the warranty sheet or on the instructions. The manufacturer has the right to independently choose the method of application but the mark size should not exceed 5 mm in height. By purchasing marked products, the buyer can be sure that they do not cause harm to human health and do not harm the environment.
