A way to get U.S. products into European markets quicker is to gain CE certification on this side of the Atlantic. A number of companies are currently offering such services. North American medical device manufacturers can now receive CE certification on behalf of the Notified Body TÜV Rheinland Product Safety GmbH thanks to the U.S, based, TÜV Rheinland Group With headquarters in Newtown, Conn., the company also has offices in Austin, Boston, Chicago, Detroit, Orlando, Portland, Raleigh, San Diego, San Francisco, Toronto and Mexico. "Unlike most compliance and certification companies, TÜV Rheinland of North America now has CE certifiers located within the United States," says the company's Medical Division manager. "This translates to accelerated time to market for companies looking to get their medical devices into the European Union. Our new CE certification capability, combined with our extensive offering of other global medical device certifications will allow our customers to get efficient one-stop shopping for all of their regulatory needs."
