If you are involved in the marine vessel and platform installation market within Europe, then you may have recently seen the “Wheel Mark” symbol appearing on products which are fitted to sea going vessels and offshore platforms.
This mark is the distinctive mark of conformity for products which comply with the Marine Equipment Directive 2014/90/EU or MED for short. It aims to enhance safety at sea and prevent marine pollution by ensuring the uniform application of international maritime standards for equipment on EU flagged ships.
It mandates that marine equipment, falling under the scope of international conventions like SOLAS (Safety of Life at Sea), undergoes independent certification by a notified body before it can be placed on the EU market. MED certification is also widely recognized globally due to the comprehensive testing requirements.
The directive covers a wide range of equipment including public address equipment and we have a wide range of loudspeakers from DNH which comply with this directive. Please contact us or see our website for this comprehensive range.
