About us
ECM – Ente Certificazione Macchine, founded in 1998 in Italy, has grown into an internationally recognized certification and testing organization. From its headquarters in Valsamoggia (Bologna), ECM supports manufacturers worldwide through an extensive network of commercial partners in Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and the United States. Over the years, the organization has continuously expanded its expertise and has become a Notified Body for multiple European product directives, an accredited testing laboratory, and a National Certification Body (NCB) within the international IECEE CB Scheme.
To support the rapid growth of its Medical Devices division, ECM opened a dedicated facility in 2020 featuring a comprehensive testing laboratory equipped with advanced technologies, including a state-of-the-art semi-anechoic chamber. In 2022, following a thorough evaluation by the relevant national and international authorities, ECM was designated as a Notified Body under the European Medical Device Regulation (MDR) 2017/745, thereby further strengthening its position as a trusted partner for certification, testing, and regulatory compliance.
