TÜV SÜD Bauart Mark
Demonstrate commitment to safety with the TÜV SÜD Bauart Mark
The safety of an electrical appliance is greatly dependent on whether its components fulfil safety standards. Therefore, safety testing of components is a stringent aspect of a product’s certification process. Non-certified components prolong the time required for appliance certification. Thus, choosing certified components is a common practice among appliance manufacturers.
The TÜV SÜD Bauart Mark (Type Tested Mark) is typically used for components and is widely recognised by manufacturers and certification bodies around the globe. The TÜV SÜD Bauart Mark demonstrates that: A representative sample of the product has been evaluated, tested and approved for safety. The production line is inspected on an annual basis. As a voluntary mark, TÜV SÜD Bauart Mark adds value to your product, facilitating your entry into EU market and supports you in becoming suppliers for appliance manufacturers.
TÜV SÜD helps companies apply for TÜV SÜD Bauart Mark and CB test report concurrently. Manufacturers can apply for certification required by other countries conveniently with the CB report. By obtaining all certification from one certification body, the turnaround time is shortened. This also reduces possible inconveniences when dealing with different agencies. In Japan, Australia, Argentina and the North American market, the respective marks-PSE, SAA, Argentina-S and NRTL can be obtained by submitting a TÜV SÜD test report to the relevant agencies. CB reports and further testing would not be required.
