01 / Product groups
More than machinery. CE expertise for technical products.
An electrical desk needs a different assessment approach from a toy or industrial system. We therefore start every project with a product-specific assessment rather than a generic template.
This keeps the work focused on the legislation, standards, assessments and evidence that genuinely apply to your product.

Not every item of furniture requires CE marking. Depending on its design, voltage, control system and radio functions, electrical or motorised furniture may fall within the scope of several EU legal acts.
02 / What we prepare for you
Every required element. In one coherent dossier.
Choose a complete package or the exact individual service you still need. The deliverables are clearly defined before commissioning.
Risk & safety assessment
We identify hazards during use, maintenance and foreseeable misuse. The product-specific assessment documents risks, necessary protective measures and residual risks for the remaining CE records.
Technical documentation
We prepare the agreed documents and compile the product description, risk assessment, supplied drawings, test reports and supplier records into an organised technical file. Missing evidence is clearly identified.
Declaration of conformity
We prepare the EU or EC Declaration of Conformity with product identification, the responsible business and applicable legislation. Once the necessary evidence is complete, it is ready for the manufacturer's approval and signature.
User & operating manuals
We review, revise or create your user or operating manual. Depending on the product, it covers installation, commissioning, use, maintenance, safety and warnings, aligned with the risk assessment and agreed languages.
Marking check
We review existing markings and prepare a product-specific rating-plate and mandatory-information template. You receive specifications for the CE mark, product identification, manufacturer details and required warnings.
USER OR OPERATING MANUAL
Compare CE packages The right level for your existing records.
The difference between our Complete packages is the work on your user or operating manual.
03 / Ready for approval
We prepare everything. You provide formal approval.
Within the agreed scope, you receive a coherent and traceable documentation package. Once technical conformity has been demonstrated, the manufacturer performs only the formal review and approval, signature and application of the specified markings.
!
No hidden remaining tasks. Any outstanding tests, product changes or additional evidence are clearly identified and handed over in a closing list.
01Classify
Clarify the product, role, use and legal fields.

Years in CE, product safety and technical conformity
09 / Your CE specialists
Technically precise. Personally accessible.
You work with specialists who keep your project coherent from the initial scope to final handover. Decisions are explained clearly and documented properly rather than hidden behind jargon.
01Dedicated contacts
Direct communication and clear responsibilities.
02Technical quality assurance
Every result is reviewed before handover.
03Clear project boundaries
Scope, inputs and deliverables are defined before work starts.
10 / Frequently asked questions
Make a clear decision before you begin.
General technical information for guidance. Not legal advice or a product-specific assessment.
01What exactly do we receive at the end?+
You receive the product-specific documents defined in your proposal, such as the legislation and standards overview, risk or safety assessment, technical documentation, prepared Declaration of Conformity and marking specifications. CE Complete reviews your existing user or operating manual; Plus also revises it, and Max creates a new one. You supply the technical product information, drawings and available test reports. We compile them and identify missing evidence.
02Does ClearCE only work with machinery?+
No. We also support electrical equipment, motorised furniture such as height-adjustable desks, toys, radio products and other CE-relevant technical products. Before every proposal we assess applicability and project fit.
03Who is ClearCE for?+
Our services are primarily designed for manufacturers, importers, hardware start-ups, product developers and engineering companies. We clarify the fit of each enquiry personally before work begins.
04What remains for us to do after handover?+
Once the product, evidence and agreed documentation are complete, the manufacturer mainly performs the formal review and approval, signs the Declaration of Conformity and applies the defined markings. Any outstanding testing or technical corrections are clearly listed at handover.
05Does ClearCE assume the manufacturer's responsibility?+
ClearCE professionally prepares and reviews the agreed documentation, but does not replace the manufacturer, importer, authorised representative or notified body. Statutory product approval, signature and placing on the market remain with the responsible economic operator.
06Does every CE product require an external test body?+
No. Manufacturers can perform many conformity-assessment procedures under their own responsibility. Certain product groups, risk categories or procedures may require or benefit from a notified body or test laboratory. We identify the need and coordinate the interfaces as agreed.
07How are prices calculated?+
The amounts shown are starting prices. The specific price depends on factors including the product, variants, available documentation, testing needs, language scope and applicable legislation. After the scope review, you receive an individual proposal with clearly defined deliverables.
08How quickly can a project be delivered?+
After reviewing the starting position, we provide a realistic delivery date. Clearly defined checks or individual documents are usually faster than product families requiring several testing and coordination stages. Urgent work can be prioritised subject to capacity.
