European Forum for Conformity Assessment

The European Forum for Conformity Assessment gathers together the major stakeholders in the European Conformity Assessment community, including social and Government partners.

Conformity assessment and the all activities associated with it are of special importance to European business, social partners and Government.
In the European economic area (EEA) these issues are of vital importance to the competitiveness of the industry in the elimination of barriers to trade and for the protection of the health, safety & environment of its citizens.

The key aspiration of the Forum is to support an effective European conformity assessment system, involving all the relevant players and facilitating the development of orientation and strategies for the European conformity assessment landscape, as well as the provision of information to users on conformity assessment activities. The Forum may make proposals and recommendations for consideration by the member organisations and others.

CEN holds, for the time being, the Secretariat for the Forum.

The first meeting of the Forum took place on 16 May 2008 in Brussels.
