A vital element in any manufacturing process is CE compliance, with most machinery and equipment to be used in the European market requiring certification of CE compliance. As part of our build programme we can undertake the specific assessment and testing that will result in the compliation of comprehensive test data and technical construction files that can afford the client the ability to self-declare for CE compliance.
