Mechanical Engineering

Competitiveness of the Mechanical sector

The competitiveness of the industry relies on excellent innovative products, and know-how and skills, as well as the ability to meet customer needs. The Commission’s activities aim to strengthen the competitiveness of the industry. This is important in order to maintain and expand the activities of these sectors, especially with regard to:
​
  • the economic significance of the sector as a whole,
  • the EU’s position compared to international competitors,
  • the level of exports and the trade balance.
​
The EU promotes the global and sustainable competitiveness of the mechanical engineering sector by taking the necessary actions to help it face challenges.

This includes the drafting of regulations regarding key aspects of the sector including Directives to harmonise standards in all key areas such as the specific sectors listed in this Chapter. Go back to the Mechanical Engineering Page and select the area of interest.
​Single Market

The Commission ensures that only safe and compliant products can be placed on the EU market. This is to protect consumers and professional users, and to guarantee a competitive single EU market.

To aid in this work, a conference on market surveillance and machinery was held in 2011. The event was attended by industry representatives, European national market surveillance and customs authorities, and others.
