- Use the Platform’s Compliance Navigator to auto-generate updated certification lists.
2. Cost Optimization:
- Mutual Recognition: Adopt IECEE CB Scheme (covers 50 countries) to reduce redundant testing.
- Platform Bundles: 3Eeye partners with SGS/TÜV to offer certification packages at 30%–50% discount.
3. Risk Mitigation:
- EU Electronics: Register in SCIP database for chemical notifications.
- US Children’s Products: Include traceability labels (manufacturer info, batch numbers).
