CE Marking
In Europe, the use of a Notified Body (NB) is required in the approval or certification process for medical devices.
Our network of accredited laboratories and certification bodies offers a comprehensive range of testing and certification services for both active and non-active medical devices and in vitro diagnostic medical devices in line with the requirements of the MDR (Medical Device Regulation) for EU markets.
To assist you in placing your medical devices onto the EU market, Eurofins E&E has a number of Notified Bodies (NB) that can provide conformity assessment to the Medical Device Regulation (MDR) 2017/745 as well as to the In-Vitro Diagnostic Regulation (IVDR) 2017/746.
Medical Device Regulation (MDR) 2017/745
Our certification bodies in Finland (NB No. 0537) and Italy (NB No. 0477) are Notified Bodies under the MDR (2017/745) for both active and non-active medical devices.
In-Vitro Diagnostic Regulation (IVDR) 2017/746
Our certification body in Finland (NB No. 0537) is a Notified Body under the In-Vitro Diagnostic Regulation (IVDR) 2017/746.
Our EU Notified Bodies
Italy Eurofins Product Testing Italy Srl NB No. 0477
Finland Eurofins Electric & Electronics Finland Oy NB No. 0537
The current scope of accreditation for all EU Notified Bodies can be found on the EU Nando website.

What is Medical Device Testing?
Medical device safety testing consists of a series of specific tests which are performed to certify that a product will not suffer from interference in the applicable medical environment and will prevent unacceptable risks to patients.
The manufacturer also performs a risk assessment and submits that assessment to the test laboratory in the form of a risk management document. This document provides evidence that a manufacturer has considered all potential hazards and mitigated associated risks to the highest degree possible.
The general medical device safety testing requirements for most electronic medical devices can be found inside the IEC 60601 standard family.
