CERTAIN works with decision-based questions derived directly from the applicable EU legislation. You start with a few fundamental questions and refine the classification systematically until the relevant EU requirements are clearly established.
This way, you reduce the research effort to the essentials and reach reliable results quickly.
For every question, you have access to the original text of the legislation as well as a clear, easy-to-understand explanation.
This keeps the decision path transparent at all times – even for complex products or borderline cases.
CERTAIN guides you directly to the relevant health and safety requirements – for example, to the applicable sections of Annex I of the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
It then suggests harmonised standards that you can apply to meet each requirement.
CERTAIN is designed for current and upcoming legal frameworks. New bodies of rules such as the Machinery Regulation are also systematically taken into account and integrated into the decision-making process.
This keeps your CE assessment future-proof and up to date with current legislation.
The results of the EU legislation research feed seamlessly into the subsequent steps of your project.
Relevant requirements are carried over directly into standards research, risk assessment, operating instructions and document creation – consistently and without duplicated work.
