The European CEN/CENELEC mark of conformity.
The KEYMARK is a voluntary mark managed by third parties, which ensures compliance with the requirements set out in European standards.
It aims to become the symbol of European quality products: it increases trust in the brands of the various European countries and the sharing of a uniform level of quality of national certification schemes.
All certification bodies operating in one of the member countries of the CEN/CENELEC system and managing an accredited product certification scheme – in compliance with a European standard – can request the management of the Keymark from DINCertco, which operates under a mandate from the CEN/CENELEC CENELEC.
