Policies & Issues: Internal Market - Compliance, Standards & Enforcement
Within the EU, all consumers expect safe products; all manufacturing companies expect fair competition. Product safety and product compliance with applicable legislation are pre-requisites for placing a product on the Community market. Safety and compliance with EU rules grant products free circulation within the Single European Market, contribute to consumer choice and confidence, and boost industry’s competitiveness and development.
