Market access · EU conformity · NB 2233
For manufacturers & importers
Placing a product on the market requires EU conformity — as a notified body we run the type-examination and certification process end to end.
Personal protective equipment may be placed on the EU market only if it conforms to Regulation (EU) 2016/425. For Category III products this requires type-examination by a notified body and ongoing production surveillance. GÉPTESZT (NB 2233) runs that process from start to finish — with its own accredited laboratory backing.
Personal protective equipment placed on the EU market must conform to Regulation (EU) 2016/425; for Category III equipment, EU type-examination by a notified body and production surveillance are mandatory.
Without a valid EU type-examination certificate the product cannot be CE-marked or lawfully placed on the market — market-surveillance action, recall and lost market access follow.
As a notified body (NB 2233) we carry out the EU type-examination (Module B) and production surveillance (Module C2/D), with accredited laboratory (ISO/IEC 17025) backing.
