EN (European Norm)

EN (European Norm) refers to a set of technical standards developed by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) to ensure products, services, and systems meet consistent quality and safety criteria across Europe. These standards facilitate trade, compatibility, and reliability by providing clear guidelines that manufacturers and organizations follow. EN standards cover a wide range of sectors, from construction to electronics, helping to protect consumers and promote fair competition. Adherence to EN standards is often voluntary but can become mandatory when incorporated into regulations or national laws.
