General advantages of the AENOR N Mark

The AENOR N Mark is a voluntary mark that allows companies to demonstrate that their products meet the performance requirements of UNE, EN, ISO standards or technical specifications. This demonstration of conformity, based on rigorous control by AENOR of manufacturing processes and testing of final products, enables manufacturers with the Mark to bring high-quality products to market, generating confidence among users of certified products.

With the letter N there are no surprises

More than 100,000 certified products bear the AENOR N Mark. Yolanda Villaseñor, AENOR's Director of Product Certification, and Javier Mejía, AENOR's Director of Strategic Marketing and Product, discuss the guarantees of this mark.
