Compliance with the EU Directives

About the EU Directives
As a part of European integration, common rules for free
transfer and commercial activities of people/goods/service
within the EU member states are being formed. As one
way of this rule making, the EC Committee has compiled
13 directives as the technological uniform standards on
health and safety, and each country is legislating in
accordance with these directives. Products covered by
these directives are obliged to carry the CE mark, and the
permission of export to and free movements and sales in
the European district is only given to products carrying the
CE mark. The following three directives are concerned with
drive products:
