To date, all Ecodesign regulations allow the manufacturer's assessment of the products’ conformity via a self-declaration. This conformity assessment procedure is also called internal design control and is described in Annex IV of the Ecodesign legislation.
This allows the manufacturer to carry out himself the conformity assessment and to draw the necessary technical information showing how the conclusions have been reached. This documentation is to be established in one of the official languages of the Union. In the case of compliance with limit values, a measurement protocol stating the measurement standard or equivalent measurement specification retained, information about the equipment used and the selection of test samples is sufficient. The EU declaration of conformity then only contains the reference to the compliance with the regulation and the measurement. specifications or standards.
