Our testing and certification marks in the field of eye protection

CE mark

Adherence to the minimum standards laid down in EC Directive is documented by the CE mark as a kind of "technical passport". All eye protection equipment must bear this mark. However, it is merely a mark for the free movement of goods and, therefore, is neither a safety nor a quality mark.

DIN-Geprüft

DIN-Geprüft is the quality mark for the tested and monitored conformity of a product with the respective requirements contained in the DIN-, DIN EN or DIN EN ISO standards and in certification schemes, as well as for the regularly conducted monitoring of in-factory production controls.

GS mark

The GS mark is a national safety mark for a product which has undergone testing and regular monitoring or for a quality management system.

DINplus

The DINplus mark is the quality mark for products for which conformity with standards has been tested and monitored and which satisfies additional requirements such as quality and environmental measures during production as well as annual monitoring of the factory production quality control system procedures of the manufacturer. This is the "plus of quality".

KEYMARK

The KEYMARK is an uniform European mark to be affixed on products for which conformity with requirements of EN standards has been tested and monitored (at least every second year). An annual surveillance of factory production control of the manufacturer and the measurement equipment is included.
