Every product that is put on the market within the EU borders must be CE marked, including glass intended for use in construction and buildings. The legislation requires that the mark must be visible, legible and permanent and can only be affixed if a Declaration of Performance (DoP) is issued. For example, the mark for tempered glass must be applied directly to the glass. The Costruction Products EU Directive n. 305/2011 provides that by affixing the CE mark the manufacturer declares, assuming its responsibility, performance values ​​of the marked products and ensures that the manufacturing and testing process complies with the relevant UNI EN standards. Products from extra-EU countries but installed within the EU borders must bear the CE mark to confirm their conformity and suitability for use. In the USA there are also standards for safety glazing materials used for all buildings and architectural purposes (ANSI Z97.1-2015), as well as in Australia and New Zealand where all safety glass is required to be marked indelibly (eg. NZS New Zealand building code) reporting the name of the manufacturer / distributor, the reference standard used for the tests (eg. AS / NZS 2208) and the classification of the glass. Additional data may also be required, as for example the license number. The marking is normally carried out in the bottom left corner. The mark can be also carried out on the edge of the glass if the thickness allows it, but it must be legible also after installation. Removable labels of any kind are not suitable for the purposes of permanent marking. The simplest and most economical device to carry out a high-quality permanent mark on glass is MARKER 101T, a portable sand jet marker equipped with a customized highly abrasion resistant stainless steel mask. The marking process can be automated through the installation of the EV automatic marking equipments EASYMARKER UP and EASYMARKER, designed to be combined with horizontal machinery (glass tempering furnaces, cutting tables, horizontal washing machines, etc.) and vertical machines ( double glazing, vertical washing machines, etc.) respectively.
