| What is ENAMA certification? | |
It is a service that should be considered as “voluntary certification”, as “value added” for a brand-new certified product. | |
| Can ENAMA Certification replace CE marking certification? | |
No, certification relating to CE marking is required to sell products in Europe, and is based on the Manufacturer’s self-certification. ENAMA certification cannot replace CE marking (procedure by which the manufacturer self-certifies its compliance with essential requirements established in the “Machinery directive”), but supplements this certification, adding to its value, since certificates are issued by a specialist third party. |
|
| Who can apply for ENAMA certification? | |
The service client may be the manufacturer, the importer or the reseller of machinery for agriculture and forests and relative parts. In greater detail, the client is the natural or legal person that directly commissions ENAMA, entering into a relative contract, to perform certification activity, specifying the purpose and objectives of the service. | |
| Is it possible to apply for Certification for safety-related aspects only? | |
An important novelty in 2005 was the introduction of a new certification procedure that gives the applicant the possibility of requesting certification only for safety-related aspects, with the issue of “Enama VS Certification”. | |
How long is Enama VS certification valid for? |
|
