Company B is just acting as a distributor of a product declared compliant by Company A. Of course, Company B might think it prudent to verify the claim of compliance, but has no legal responsibility UNLESS Company A is outside the EU while Company B is inside it. In that case, Company B bears joint responsibility. -- This is my travelling signature, adding no superfluous mass.
