Smart light bulbs are a new form of light bulb products. It adopts embedded IoT core technology and embeds the interoperable core module into energy-saving light bulbs, which can reduce the cost of use for families and businesses. In addition, it can also set your favorite scene lighting according to your own lighting needs, creating a different indoor atmosphere and expressing a more humane lighting environment. However, if smart bulbs want to export into the EU market, they need to apply for CE certification.
The importance of applying for CE certification
CE certification provides a unified technical specification for the trade of products from various countries in the European market and simplifies the trade procedure. To enter the European Union and the European Free Trade Area, the products of any country must be CE certified, and the CE mark should be affixed to the product. Therefore, CE certification is a passport for products to enter the European Union and European Free Trade Zone countries.
CE certification means that the product has met the safety requirements stipulated by the EU directives; it is a commitment of enterprises to consumers, which increases consumers' trust in the product; products affixed with the CE mark will reduce the risk of being sold in the European market.
