Accredited testing and assistance for CE registration of medical face masks in accordance with the applicable standard EN 14683 for medical equipment for manufacturers, importers, and distributors.

Medical face masks are also known as surgical face masks or disposable face masks. If you want to market and sell medical face masks in the EU, including the Danish market, they must be CE marked and registered.

We offer accredited testing of medical face masks in collaboration with our European partner. This allows you to secure the necessary documentation and acquire the CE marking for your product. This means that you can provide proof to customers and authorities that your product meets the requirements of the applicable standard EN 14683, and thereby can get through customs upon import and be sold legally on the European market.

Depending on the filtering ability, medical face masks are categorised as type I, type II, or type IIR. Moreover, medical face masks can be further divided into sterile and non-sterile face masks. We offer accredited testing in accordance with EN 14683 of all types of medical face masks, ensuring that they live up to the requirements.

We also offer accredited testing of filtering face masks and community face covers.
