Quality Requirements Edition 5.0 European Enamel Association

1.3 Procedure for obtaining the ”European Enamel Association” label by a
company which assembles or factors parts or products enamelled by
subcontractors

1.3.1
Where the applicant assembles or factors enamelled parts which have been enamelled
by a subcontractor and wishes the finished product to qualify for an ”EEA” label, then the
company shall demonstrate that the requirements detailed in sections 1.2 are satisfied by
the appropriate subcontract enamellers.
In the opposite case when the EEA certified company is an (exclusive) jobber and
responsible for only the quality of the enamelling without having direct influence on
the quality of the supplied base material e.g. the steel, the final enamel quality shall
be agreed between the jobber and it’s customer.

1.3.2
This shall be accomplished by submission of relevant documents delivered by the
subcontractor(s), in accordance with the instructions given in these quality requirements.
The applicant may also choose to have the audit carried out at the subcontractor, if
required.
