Evolution offer ETICS has recently voted a resolution to promote ENEC Scheme using modern technologies and switching into Digitalisation. The QR-C or any other future standardised encoding mode (numeric, alphanumeric, byte/binary, etc. ) allows to instantly identify that e. g. Consumer Goods have been tested and found compliant with the relevant requirements of the product standards. 10/29/2020 7: 07: 31 AM 7 th International Safety Conference-Brussels 2016 19

Common centralised database Evolution offer ETICS administers a centralised European Database hosting all ENEC certified products which will allow Consumer, Retailers, Buyers, Custom Officers, Market Surveillance Authorities and any other Stakeholder, by scanning the QR-C, to consult/verify/investigate the status of the product, the Certification Body that has issued the certificate, the scope and extent of the compliance (safety, performance, etc). 10/29/2020 7: 07: 33 AM 7 th International Safety Conference-Brussels 2016 20

Access by Custom Officers Have counterfeit features 10/29/2020 7: 07: 55 AM A strong set of anti-counterfeit features may improve the appetite for clients buying into the program. Industry associations, as well as market surveillance authorities and customs’ officers would all plaude the initiative, should we be successful in adding these features in a simple, industry-friendly manner. Collaboration with Custom Officers (Interpol, Europol) by e. g. Providing them direct access to the Database is an example to fight counterfeit. 7 th International Safety Conference-Brussels 2016 24
