SGS’s E-mark approval services help you to comply with the international vehicle type approval regulations issued by the Economic Commission for Europe (ECE).
The ECE is part of the United Nations, with members from the European Union (EU) and elsewhere. Therefore, if you intend to sell your vehicles or vehicle parts in ECE member markets, E-mark compliance and EU type approval are equally important.
We can evaluate vehicles, systems and components on your behalf and prepare the test reports you need to apply for approvals. We also issue type approval certificates, to acknowledge that your products are in full compliance with the relevant standards and regulations.
We are designated for over 200 national and international testing procedures, including:
EC framework directive 2007/46/EC for
- Class M vehicles (passenger cars, buses)
- Class N vehicles (trucks)
- Class O vehicles (trailers)
EC framework directive 2002/24/EC for
- Class L vehicles (motorcycles and light 3- and 4-wheeled vehicles)
In addition, our experts are in constant contact with various approval authorities and play an active part in the trade bodies and committees that drive the regulatory agenda. This means we are aware of the latest trends and developments and can share this information with you – ensuring your conformance with the technical requirements of your target markets.
