CE and UKCA marking for personal protective equipment

PPE is critical for protecting health and safety in high-risk environments, yet navigating certification can be complex. Our experts simplify the process for manufacturers, importers, and exporters, offering guidance on technical file compilation and regulatory challenges.

CE Marking for PPE in the EU
The EU’s Regulation (EU) 2016/425 classifies PPE into three categories:

• Category I – Self-declaration by manufacturers.
• Category II – Certification by a Notified Body.
• Category III – Certification and ongoing monitoring by a Notified Body.

For Category II and III PPE, manufacturers must conduct accredited testing and submit technical files for approval. Category III PPE also requires annual factory audits or sample testing.
