Simplify your access to global markets

Posted By sme-admin on February 19, 2025 Technology

Kiwa, one of the country’s leading product safety certification providers, has further extended its electrical safety certification service with the addition of two new significant IECEE CB scheme test standards.

The company now offers manufacturers access to product safety certification support for audio/video, information and communication technology equipment under the IEC 62368-1 standard, as well as IEC 61010-1, covering electrical equipment for measurement and control, and instruments within a laboratory. 

The two new product categories add to Kiwa’s well-established expertise in the electromagnetic capability (EMC), radio and product safety testing area, and will deliver an enhanced capability to support manufacturers’ ambitions to access global markets.

The IEC System of Conformity Assessment Schemes for Electrotechnical Equipment and Components, better known as the CB scheme, helps facilitate the mutual recognition of product safety test results and certifications across different countries around the globe, helping manufacturers access global markets more efficiently.  The CB Scheme assists manufacturers to obtain multiple international certifications from Kiwa via a single program of product tests which reduces the need for multiple in-country tests, making access to global markets more efficient.

As an experienced participant member of the IECEE CB scheme, Kiwa operates two National Certified Bodies (NCBs) located in The Netherlands and Germany, with a supporting network of Certified Body Testing Laboratories (CBTLs) including one in the UK.

Kiwa Electrical Compliance is already a well-established and experienced UKAS accredited EMC, radio and product safety testing facility, providing comprehensive electronics testing capability, certification, and compliance for the worldwide market.

Chris Rouse, Cluster Director (RF & Electrical) for Kiwa, comments: “The addition of two complementary IECEE product safety certification standards underpins the strength and diversity of our test and certification services. These new capabilities will help to continue our support for manufacturers by simplifying testing requirements and helping to facilitate a more efficient route to global product safety certification.

“Manufacturers of multimedia, laboratory equipment and control and measurement equipment, can now access our competitive and customer focussed product safety certification service as they plan their product’s journey to market.

“Any product launch delay can potentially lead to both commercial and reputational issues, so manufacturers need confidence that the product’s safety certification process will be expertly and quickly handled.  Kiwa already enjoys a strong reputation for a bespoke and collaborative approach to product safety testing and certification, and we look forward to supporting more UK manufacturers as they develop products for their specific markets.”
