A wide range of 4065 Brigade Electronics’ vehicle safety products is now certified to E-Mark (UN ECE Regulation 10, Revision 4), in line with new regulations which came into force at the end of October.

Only electrical products carrying the E-Mark can be fitted to approved vehicles in advance of registration without the vehicles then requiring further homologation testing as ‘complete’ or ‘completed’ vehicles.
