Can ATEX certification be applied for in China? What institutions can apply for ATEX certification certificates?
ATEX certification generally refers to the EU's explosion-proof certification; explosion-proof products exported to the EU region must undergo this certification.
To apply for ATEX certification, companies can seek domestic application agencies, and the testing can also be conducted domestically; however, the certification issuing body must be an EU Notified Body.
Currently common are organizations such as Germany's TÜV, Canada's CSA, Slovakia's TI, Italy's ECM, and France's BV.
ATEX certification is divided into different certification models based on the explosion-proof grade.
Certification models vary, as do the costs and requirements. Customers can choose according to their actual needs.
If you're looking to export explosion-proof products, you can DM Shenzhen Zhongnuo Testing Technology Co., Ltd. for a discussion on specific international explosion-proof certification requirements.

How long is the validity of an ATEX certificate? Where can I apply for ATEX certification?
ATEX certification is a防爆 directive under the EU's CE certification, with directive code 2014/34/EU.
Mandatory certification for explosion-proof equipment and products entering the EU market is based on the product certification standards EN 60079 and ISO 80079 series.
Specifically, it depends on the product's suitability for certain explosion-proof ratings and markings.
ATEX certification is issued by various bodies, typically involving a "product testing + factory audit" approach.
The ATEX certificate issued by ECM institutions is the only one with a specified validity period, which is 5 years.
Other institutions, such as TÜV, CSA, TI, and others, which issue ATEX certification, do not specify an expiration date.
These require on-site audits of the production facilities for certified products to be conducted annually.
Certification validity can be maintained upon passing the review. Of course, if there are updates to standards, a certificate renewal is required.
ATEX certification, though it's an EU explosion-proof certification, can also be applied for by agents domestically.
ZhongNuo Inspection applies for ATEX certification and has a good cooperative relationship with international issuing bodies and domestic laboratories.
Familiar with certification standards and procedures, and able to provide on-site factory audits. For details, please message us directly.
