ECM confirms its institutional commitment within the European technical committees of Notified Bodies, contributing to the evolution of the regulatory framework for machinery.

An important European institutional appointment has concluded, which ECM took part in, confirming its commitment to active participation in the coordination committees among Notified Bodies. Our Press Office & Social Media Manager Luca Serra represented ECM in Palermo on the occasion of the 61st CNB-MA HC Meeting (June 9-10, 2026) dedicated to the Machinery Regulation 2023/1230.

TOWARDS AN INCREASINGLY HARMONIZED REGULATORY FRAMEWORK

These periodic meetings between Notified Bodies represent a crucial moment for discussion, alignment, and updates. During the technical sessions, participants addressed numerous regulatory topics of common interest, with the aim of promoting a uniform application of the directives across the various Member States.

In particular, the Palermo meeting gave extensive coverage to the new Machinery Regulation, destined to replace the current directive: a transition that will mark a significant evolution of the European regulatory framework. The introduction of the new Regulation will bring with it elements of greater harmonization and immediate application, reinforcing the consistency of interpretations and coordination among the stakeholders involved.

ECM’S ACTIVE CONTRIBUTION TO THE TECHNICAL COMMITTEES

ECM’s participation in these meetings confirms our active role as Notified Body No. 1282 within the European regulatory landscape. In addition to keeping ourselves constantly updated, ECM brings its own field experience, contributing to the analysis of regulatory questions and to the development of a clearer and more harmonized regulatory environment.

Our participation in these technical working groups is an integral part of our ongoing commitment to providing expert, up-to-date services aligned with the highest European standards and responsive to the evolving regulatory context.
