Standards, approvals and CE/UKCA marking
A mark is a declaration of conformity, not a performance rating.
Product safety marking
CE, UKCA and equivalent marks declare that a product conforms to applicable safety legislation. They are a legal statement by the manufacturer, not an independent quality endorsement.
Anchor approvals are separate
The anchors you install carry their own approvals — European Technical Assessments and similar — which specify base materials, hole geometry, cleaning and installation.
A tool mark says nothing about anchor performance; the anchor's approval does.
Battery and transport
Lithium-ion packs are subject to transport regulation. Follow the manufacturer's and carrier's requirements.
Where to check
Manufacturer declarations of conformity, anchor manufacturers' approval documents, and your own national regulator.
