We are one of the few independent specialists and our accreditation stretches back to the early 1990’s.
What is a UK Approved Body?
An Approved Body is an organization designated to assess the conformity of products before they are placed on the market in the UK.
The rules governing the involvement of an Approved Body in the certification process are set by individual UK regulations. Some regulations require substantial involvement from Approved Bodies for most products, whilst for other regulations the use of an Approved Body remains entirely voluntary.
Approved Body Services From Technology International
Under the three UK Regulations listed above, Technology International can complete UK-Type Examinations of manufacturers’ Technical Documentation. If the examined Documentation is found to provide sufficient evidence of conformity with the applicable regulation, Technology International issues a UK-Type Examination Certificate.
This service also includes the ability to review existing EU-Type Examination Certificates, issued under the above regulations, from European Notified Bodies. If sufficient evidence of conformity with the applicable regulation, Technology International can issue a UK-Type Examination Certificate. The UK Certificate is said to ‘mirror’ the EU Certificate, but instead allows access to the GB market.
