The EU has adopted the Medical Device Regulation, which replaces the Medical Devices Directive.

NOTICE

Intertek Semko AB, NB 0413, have been made aware of a number of manufacturers selling medical surgical/face masks falsely claiming to be certified by Intertek. Intertek have seen false ‘certificates’ on letterheads, or the use of Intertek’s logo and/or name and Notified body number 0413, as the basis for CE marking against the Medical Device Directive or Personal Protective Equipment Directive. Intertek SEMKO AB, NB 0413, is not registered under the PPE directive in NANDO. These false ‘certificates’ have no legal value and cannot be used as proof of conformity assessment.

In case of doubt, we recommend that you verify the authenticity of the certificate by contacting Intertek’s Medtech team at medtechsweden@intertek.com. We will review the certificate and respond to your request as soon as possible. We are continuously monitoring these false certificates and reporting them accordingly to the Competent Authorities.
