CE

In order to sell to 27 countries in Europe, your product must meet certain standards. These standards were established back in 1985 between EC ministers to implement a new approach to technical harmonisation and standards. This 'New Approach" eased the free movement of goods within Europe. The "New Approach" contains certain requirements that a product must meet when being manufactured in order to be sold in Europe. A few of the countries that require it in Europe are Germany, Italy, Ireland, Malta, and Romania. HBSunglassCompany complies with these regulations when manufacturing their sunglasses.
