When buying scientific or electronic items, especially imports from the EU or US, it’s important to ensure they meet quality and safety standards. A Certificate of Conformity (CoC) confirms that a product meets the required standards, including the products and their labels.
The CoC varies according to the safety regulations in the US or EU and is typically issued by an authorized party or laboratory. It includes essential details such as the safety rules the product adheres to, batch numbers, contact information, and CE marks. These certificates are vital for customs clearance and ensuring the product meets safety and quality standards. For more information about compliant labels, visit our Equipment Labels page.
Easier Certification Request Process
We’ve made it easier for you to request compliance certificates for our label products. Now, you can easily request these certificates while placing your order, making the entire process seamless.
Exploring Different Compliance Programs
We offer label products that meet the requirements for four different compliance certification programs.
Certificate of Conformance
This is one of the most requested certificates. A competent authority certifies that the product meets the required specifications. The certification includes details that provide traceability of the product to its point of manufacture or origin. Learn more in our Certificate of Conformity Labeling blog.
RoHS
Short for the EU directive on Restriction of Hazardous Substances. It makes sure that electrical or electronic items don’t have too much of certain dangerous chemicals.
REACH
This regulation addresses the production and use of chemical substances and their impacts on health and the environment.
3TG
This relates to tungsten, tantalum, tin, and gold, and it connects to the disclosure of conflict minerals usage.
Certified Label Materials
We certify all materials in our Control Panel/Graphic Overlay program for these programs. We also offer compliance certification for a variety of materials in other product lines.
Requesting Your Certificates
We’ve simplified the process of requesting certificates during the order process. After you provide your job details, choose the certificates you want, and we’ll send them along with your label order.
If the materials you choose do not qualify for a certificate, you have two options. You can either select another material or seek assistance from our Customer Care team.
