Medical and Laboratory Devices

As a medical products manufacturer, your business success depends on making products that operate safely and effectively.

UL can help your company design and produce quality medical devices essential to earning worldwide market acceptance.

The continuing globalization of commerce is bringing change -- the movement toward harmonization of standards. Harmonization can expedite the certification process for those who want to sell in various countries.


For example, by meeting EMC requirements for Europe, you also meet EMC requirements for the United States and Japan. And many of the efficacy and quality control requirements of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) are consistent with those of Europe.

We can assist you with all international compliance issues. As your single source of global compliance support, UL can recommend and implement a service package that takes advantage of the opportunities offered by international harmonization that best meets your conformity assessment needs.
