What the UKCA marking symbol means
Meets UK product requirements
UK Conformity Assessed. The manufacturer, or its authorised representative, declares that the product meets the UK rules that apply to it, for example on electrical safety, toys or machinery. It is used for products sold in Great Britain (England, Scotland and Wales); Northern Ireland uses CE or CE with UKNI instead. Great Britain also still accepts the CE marking, so a product may carry either mark or both. It is not a quality award or a sign of where the product was made. The mark must be at least 5 mm high unless the product rules say otherwise.
