▍What is CE Certification?

The CE mark is a “passport” for products to enter the EU market and the EU Free Trade Association countries market. Any stipulated products (involved in the new method directive), whether manufactured outside the EU or in EU member states, in order to circulate freely in the EU market, they must be in compliance with the requirements of the directive and relevant harmonized standards before being placed on the EU market , and affix the CE mark. This is a mandatory requirement of EU law on related products, which provides a unified minimum technical standard for the trade of products of various countries in the European market and simplifies trade procedures.

▍What is CE directive?

The directive is a legislative document established by the European Community Council and the European Commission under authorization of the European Community Treaty. The applicable directives for batteries are:

2006/66 / EC & 2013/56 / EU: Battery Directive. Batteries that comply with this directive must have a trash can mark;

2014/30 / EU: Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive (EMC Directive). Batteries that comply with this directive must have the CE mark;

2011/65 / EU: ROHS directive. Batteries that comply with this directive must have the CE mark;

Tips: Only when a product complies with all CE directives (the CE mark needs to be pasted), can the CE mark be pasted when all the requirements of the directive are met.

▍The Necessity of Applying for CE Certification

Any product from different countries that wants to enter the EU and the European Free Trade Zone must apply for CE-certified and CE marked on the product. Therefore, CE certification is a passport for products entering EU and the European Free Trade Zone.

▍Benefits of Applying for CE certification

1. EU laws, regulations, and coordinate standards are not only large in quantity, but also complex in content. Therefore, obtaining the CE certification is a very smart choice to save time and effort as well as to reduce the risk;

2. A CE certificate can help earning the trust of consumers and market supervision institution to a maximum extent;

3. It can effectively prevent the irresponsible allegations situation;

Under the background of the overall acceleration of new energy vehicles industry, lithium is in full application. As of the end of year 2020, about 86 million tons of lithium resources has been searched out globally, while Chinese lithium resource reservesaccount for about 6% of the global lithium resource reserves. Over 80% of the few lithium resources are hidden in the salt lake. Facing such strong market demand, it is imperative to develop and extract abundant lithium resources from salt lake.
After years of hard work by a group of companies, Chinese extraction of lithium from salt lake reaches and inflection point of large-scale industrialization. The average industry cost has gradually dropped to 30,000 to 60,000 yuan per ton. The production capacity has also grown rapidly. From Qinghai to Tibet, the rising extraction of lithium from salt lake industry is expected to provide a stable supply of resources for the new energy industry.
