Markets
Market Coverage and Compliance
Which marks open which market, what Besenled holds today, and what is still unconfirmed — stated before the quotation, not after the shipment.
A destination market asks for a specific mark. This page lists the marks we hold and the ones we do not, so a project can be checked against the market before a price is quoted.
Marks by market
| Market | Mark that opens the market | What Besenled holds | Still to confirm |
|---|---|---|---|
| European Union | CE (with the applicable directives) | CE and RoHS | Declaration of conformity for the exact model, wattage and driver |
| United Kingdom | UKCA | Not in the confirmed list | Whether the project accepts a CE-based route; UKCA is checked per project |
| United States | FCC for EMC, ETL for safety listing | FCC and ETL | ETL scope per model; DLC is not a confirmed listing |
| Canada | cETL | ETL, with cETL scope confirmed per model | The cETL scope for the models in the order |
| Australia and New Zealand | SAA | SAA | Which models are inside the SAA scope |
| Indonesia | SNI | SNI | Model list and the import route for the order |
| Mexico | NOM | NOM | Model list and the importer named on the certificate |
| Saudi Arabia and the GCC | SASO | SASO | PC/SC scope, confirmed per shipment |
| Other IEC-based markets | The destination mark plus a test report | CB test report | CB is a report, not a market certificate: the destination mark is still required |
| Hazardous areas, any market | ATEX, IECEx or the local hazardous-area mark | Not confirmed | Checked per project; quoted only where a valid certificate exists for the model |
| Rebate and utility programmes, US and Canada | DLC | Pending | Never presented as a qualified listing |
What is not claimed
- UL. We do not hold UL.
- TISI. Not confirmed; do not treat it as available.
- DLC. Not confirmed; do not treat it as a rebate-qualified listing.
- ATEX and IECEx. Not listed as confirmed; hazardous-area certification is checked per project.
A mark is not a model
Holding a mark does not mean every fixture is covered by it. A certificate issued for one wattage, CCT, driver or housing does not automatically cover another. The covered model list is part of the check, and it is the list we send with the certificate pack.
What that means for a schedule
Local certification can add about one month to a project, on top of production of 7 to 30 days and transit of 7 to 12 days by air, 20 to 30 days by rail and 25 to 35 days by sea. Where a market needs a mark we do not hold, we say so before the order instead of after it.
How to check your market
Send the destination country, the model or the fixture type, and the mark the project requires. We answer with the scope we can prove for that model and the documents that go with it. Public metadata — certificate number, issuer, standard and validity — is shared first; the full certificate pack may require an NDA.
Use the document request page for the certificate pack, or the contact page with the market and the model when the scope is unclear.
