Changes to the CE Marking for Machines and Products from 2027
With the CE marking, manufacturers confirm that their products comply with all applicable EU directives and regulations.
Starting in 2027, this marking will take on a new dimension: it will serve as proof of cybersecurity competence. The new Machinery Regulation (MVO) and the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) challenge companies to think and implement functional safety and digital resilience holistically. This article explains what changes are coming—and how to prepare strategically.

Welcome to the new reality: the CE marking is going digital. For many, the new rules starting in 2027 will be an uncomfortable truth. Because from January 20, 2027, the new Machinery Regulation (MVO) and the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) will apply—and with that, everything will change.
