The letter E represents the certification mark of the European Union, and the number 4 stands for the Netherlands. E4 on car glass indicates that it was produced in the Netherlands. There are also E1, E2, E3...E16, which correspond to different countries. The specific list is as follows: E1—Germany; E2—France; E3—Italy; E4—Netherlands; E5—Sweden; E6—Belgium; E7—Hungary; E8—Czech Republic; E9—Spain; E10—Yugoslavia; E11—United Kingdom; E12—Austria; E13—Luxembourg; E14—Switzerland; E16—Norway; E17—Finland; E18—Denmark; E19—Romania; E20—Poland; E21—Portugal; E22—Russia; E23—Greece; E25—Croatia; E26—Slovenia; E27—Slovakia; E28—Belarus; E29—Estonia; E31—Bosnia and Herzegovina; E37—Turkey. The E-mark originates from the regulations (Regulation) issued by the Economic Commission for Europe (ECE). Currently, the ECE includes 28 European countries, not only EU member states but also non-EU countries in Eastern and Southern Europe. ECE regulations are recommendations for member states to adopt and are not mandatory standards. Member countries can either apply ECE regulations or continue to use their own national regulations. Market acceptance: Generally, ECE member states are willing to accept test reports and certificates that comply with ECE regulations. E-mark certification covers products such as components and system parts. Products that obtain E-mark certification are widely accepted in the market. Common E-mark certified products in China include automotive bulbs, safety glass, tires, warning triangles, and automotive electronic products.
