CE mark after Brexit

If spotting dodgy imports of dangerous light fittings etc was not already hard to do, and quite contentious, it seems that after Christmas, as well as CE documentation, we may be expecting to find UKCA or maybe UK(NI) marks depending where you live, as of course anything coming in from Europe will now count as an import, and the person bringing or mail ordering it into the UK will become responsible for the import paperwork.

 link    I predict getting spare parts for non UK made equipment via a legitimate route may get a bit harder than it currently is.

  • The CE mark has always been a problem to everyone. I had a case some years ago where a company had to replace ALL its compressed air equipment because it didn't have a CE mark (it was older than the CE mark, but otherwise fine). The pressure vessel inspector couldn't fault anything except the lack of the mark, but the insurer said it was essential! Good riddance I say, particularly as it apparently means China export, and I try to avoid many of those.
