The European Union has specific requirements for products entering its communities. These requirements are most commonly promulgated through material specifications and performance requirements that become regulations through government directives and laws. There are myriad standards sponsored by quasi-government agencies, industry associations, and voluntary standards-writing organizations, and it is these documents that may be written into or referenced in directives and laws, and to which compliance may be a requirement.
