Strategic Sourcing
As trade barriers fall across the globe, the use of foreign materials is increasingly important to maintain competitiveness. IMEC can help you find the right sources for your manufacturing needs.

IMEC can provide specific information sessions and seminars on specific international issues and topics. You name the problem, and we will provide the solution.
CE Mark and other International Certifications
The European Union, the combined market of fifteen European nations, requires manufactured products to carry the Conformite Europeenee (CE) mark to sell their products within the common market. From self-certification to full testing, IMEC can assist you in getting the CE Mark.
