21 The PPE Regulation (EU) 2016/425 modules Module B EU Type Examination (Annex V) Similar to current Article 10 process EU type-examination is the part of a conformity assessment procedure in which a Notified Body examines the technical design of PPE and verifies and attests that the technical design of the PPE meets the requirements of this Regulation that apply to it. On completion manufacturer is given EU Type examination which has a max 5 year validity The Notified Body shall keep a copy of the documents for 5 years after the expiry of the certificate The manufacturer shall keep a copy of the technical documentation for 10 years after the PPE has ceased production. 21

28 Use of the BSI Kitemark PPE Regulation & Differentiation Chrishna Vaja, Propositions Manager, BSI 28
29 Use of the BSI Kitemark to meet PPE Regulation requirements We run PPE Kitemark schemes for industrial safety helmets, equestrian helmets and safety eyewear. Requirements are that a product is tested to and meets a published standard and the manufacturer has a quality system which meets the requirements of ISO Once a licence is issued there are regular on-going product testing and factory assessments. 29
30 Use of the BSI Kitemark to meet PPE Regulation requirements The activities manufacturers use to maintain their Kitemark certificates can be used to maintain their legal regulatory requirements 30
31 Why do more than CE marking? BSI Kitemark goes beyond meeting minimum legal safety requirements and delivers a reassurance of quality, trust and safety to the end user. Differentiation Commercial Advantage 31
32 Use of the BSI Kitemark to meet PPE Regulatory requirements Activity Pre-market approval On-going surveillance PPE Regulation (EU) 2016/425 Kitemark process Module B Type Test Test data can be used for both Module C2 OR Module D Twice annual product audit test AND Continuing Assessment Visit Kitemark audit can be used for Module C2 A CAV can be combined with Module D 32
33 BSI Kitemark a brief overview of BSI s rigorous process Initial Assessment Type testing Initial Assessment Stage 1: Pre-Audit Visit of the Quality Management System Stage 2: Initial Assessment visit for QMS & Manufacturing processes Type testing Certification Evaluation KM Award Continuing Assessments Certification evaluation by BSI Certification Manager and recommendations made BSI s Compliance and Risk Team review and if successful, award BSI Kitemark On-going continuing assessment visits Audit Testing On-going audit testing of products 33
34 What reassurance will BSI Kitemark give you? Consistency of performance of products, independently tested by BSI against recognised industry standards Evidence of a manufacturer s due diligence: Commitment to using current standards to benchmark their products On-going commitment to quality manufacturing, with samples tested annually Customer focused approach Reassurance of product quality 34
35 How to be sure product is BSI Kitemark approved? Clear choice for the end user All Kitemark approved products are listed on 35
36 How is BSI Kitemark valued? Our survey said Consumers associate BSI Kitemark with rigour Consumers know that products and services displaying BSI Kitemark are tried and tested Consumers trust products and services displaying the BSI Kitemark 58% of consumers say BSI Kitemark is an indication of quality 36
