New Labelling Requirement for the UK Market

The European conformity marking CE is about to be discontinued in Great Britain: From 01 January 2023, after a two-year transition period, only the British UKCA marking (UK Conformity Assessed) will be accepted there. This also affects HELUKABEL cables, wires and accessories.

Unfortunately, it is not yet clear how exactly the UKCA marking will be regulated from next year. However, we are in constant contact with the responsible authorities through our British subsidiary, HELUKABEL (UK) Ltd. This ensures that we are informed quickly and directly about all future decisions in this regard. The UKCA mark is currently only printed on our product labels. As soon as there is more planning certainty, we will also apply it to products and data sheets.

We are convinced that we will be able to offer our customers in the UK our products and solutions reliably and in compliance with the regulations in the future as well. We will of course keep you informed about further news on the subject of UKCA certification.
