CE marking is mandatory for products sold in the EU. Suntew guides Indian manufacturers through EU product directives, technical file preparation, and conformity assessment — from Mangalore to Europe.
CE Mark (Conformité Européenne) is the mandatory conformity marking required for a wide range of products sold in the European Economic Area. It is not a quality mark or a symbol of European origin — it is a legal declaration by the manufacturer that the product meets all applicable EU safety, health, and environmental requirements. Without CE marking, products in its scope simply cannot be sold in any EU country, Switzerland, Norway, Iceland, or Liechtenstein. For Mangalore manufacturers and exporters dealing with European markets through Mangalore Port, CE certification is a non-negotiable export requirement.
The CE marking process involves identifying the applicable EU directive or regulation for your product, conducting a risk assessment, ensuring the product meets the relevant technical standards (often through third-party testing), preparing a comprehensive technical file, and signing a Declaration of Conformity. Suntew Business Solutions guides Mangalore and Bangalore exporters through every stage of this process — from initial product assessment to the final CE mark on your product and packaging.

Different products fall under different EU directives — machinery, low voltage, medical devices, toys, PPE, EMC, and more. Suntew identifies which EU directive or regulation applies to your product and whether self-declaration or a Notified Body audit is required.
Each EU directive references harmonised European standards (EN standards). If your product is manufactured to these standards, it creates a presumption of conformity. Suntew identifies the relevant standards and assesses your product's compliance with each one.
A product-specific risk assessment is a core requirement of CE marking. Suntew prepares the risk assessment document identifying all foreseeable hazards associated with your product and demonstrating that they have been addressed through design, protection measures, or user information.
Where third-party testing is required (medical devices, PPE, toys, etc.), Suntew coordinates with accredited Notified Bodies and NABL-approved testing laboratories to get your product tested against relevant EU standards.
The Technical File is the complete evidence package for your CE mark: product description, applicable directives and standards, design drawings, test reports, risk assessment, and Declaration of Conformity. Suntew compiles and maintains this file — it must be available to EU authorities for 10 years.
Once all requirements are met, the manufacturer signs the EU Declaration of Conformity and affixes the CE mark to the product, packaging, and accompanying documentation. Suntew prepares the Declaration of Conformity and ensures correct CE mark formatting.
Get your IEC code before your first CE-marked shipment to Europe — IEC is mandatory for all Indian exporters.
ISO 9001 certification strengthens your CE marking documentation and demonstrates quality management to European buyers.
