ENB - Assessment
and Certification (CE-marking)
 From 1 January 2003 all blasting explosives, detonating cords, detonators
and propellants used commercially must bear the CE mark if they
are to be placed on the European market.
Applications for certification must be made on the ENB application
form using the EC modular system for assessing conformity. Usually,
Module B, EC Type Examination, is supported by a quality system
(Module D or E) or by Module C (Conformity to Type). Module C involves
ENB in taking samples of the manufacturer's production.
ENB grants approval for the CE mark to be affixed to products that
comply with the Essential Safety Requirements of Directive 93/15/EEC,
allowing them free access to European markets.
