Consumer Electrical & Electronic Product Testing & Certification

Your industry, our focus

Testing, Certification & Product Performance Services

Eurofins E&E supports manufacturers of consumer electrical and electronic products with extensive experience, expertise and capabilities, allowing you to deliver compliant products to market quickly and cost-effectively.

From Electromagnetic and Wireless compatibility to Product Safety and Performance Verification, manufacturers face a wide range of regulatory and market-specific requirements as the demands from customers for new technology has created many new opportunities for growth. However, these new opportunities have created additional pressures on manufacturers, product designers and retailers alike to ensure that products meet customers' demands whilst continuing to stay apace with regulatory requirements.

For example, the addition of Wi-Fi to refrigerators, NFC to washing machines or Bluetooth® to smart home devices has dramatically increased the range of products that may need additional testing and certification, some of which may require additional regulatory approvals at regional or local levels.

Our global network of laboratories and our extensive industry knowledge can help you meet these demands and ensure that you can:

  • Deliver products to market, on-time and on-budget
  • Reduce costs and timelines during product design and development
  • Grow revenue in new and emerging markets with our Global Market Access services
  • Maintain regulatory compliance and customer acceptance at every stage of your product’s lifecycle

Whether you’re designing, manufacturing or delivering products to market, Eurofins E&E has the expertise, experience and services needed to meet your needs, now and in the future.

Global Market Access

Being able to place a single product onto multiple global markets is an essential requirement in the lifecycle of many consumer electronic products. Understanding any specific entry requirements for each market is critical, both at a product design stage and during testing, approval and certification.

Eurofins E&E provides a Global Market Access service to manufacturers that assists you in obtaining international approvals and any specific in-country certifications. Our GMA teams work with you throughout the process, ensuring that all aspects of product compliance, approval, and certification are covered and provide guidance on the best route to market, both now and in the future.

Electrical Safety Testing

Ensuring that your products are safe to use and do not pose a risk to the user is a critical part of product acceptance from both retailers and consumers. Although often referred to as electrical safety testing, some of the assessments go beyond electrical characteristics. The safety testing ensures that products do not present a danger or hazard during everyday use or expected abuse.

Eurofins E&E has an extensive scope of accreditation for product safety testing, covering key markets such as the EU with the CE Mark, the US & Canada with the MET NRTL mark and the global CB Scheme, which covers more than 50 countries.
