CE Certification for Bathroom Hardware: A Manufacturer’s View In the world of bathroom hardware — from shower tray legs to adjustable support frames and brackets — certification is no longer optional. For European importers, especially, CE marking isn’t just a label; it’s a guarantee of quality, safety, and compliance. At Jinyi, we’ve been supplying OEM bathroom hardware to international customers for over a decade, and CE compliance has been a key part of how we earn — and keep — their trust. Here’s what we’ve learned from a manufacturer’s perspective. What Does CE Mean for Bathroom Hardware? For components like shower tray support frames or bath leg kits, CE marking signals that the product meets the relevant EU directives — most commonly relating to: Mechanical strength and stability Load-bearing capacity Material safety Durability under moisture and corrosion While these fittings may seem simple, they support the structure of the bathroom, meaning non-compliant products could lead to serious risks — from leaking to collapse. From the Factory Floor: What Jinyi Does to Ensure CE-Level Quality Raw Material Traceability We only source certified plastics and metals, such as virgin PP, reinforced nylon, and galvanized steel. Every batch is traceable, tested, and documented. Load Testing & Endurance Checks Our support frames and tray legs undergo weight-bearing simulations to ensure they meet or exceed EU norms. If a leg is rated for 200kg, we’ve tested it for more. Moisture & Corrosion Resistance Every fitting is designed to last — even in high-humidity environments. We conduct salt spray testing and moisture aging to ensure long-term performance. Documentation Support for Importers We help our European partners prepare Declaration of Conformity (DoC), technical drawings, test reports, and product labels — all essential for CE compliance. Why CE Compliance Matters for You (the Importer) Avoid customs delays or product seizures Sell legally within the EU and EEA Gain customer confidence and retail access Reduce after-sales issues and installation risks With Jinyi, you’re not just buying a fitting — you’re buying peace of mind.
