We looked into agency approval for our induction heaters (fluxeon.com). What we found was startling. Unlike here in the States where the various approval agencies (UL, ETL, etc) have their marks registered as trademarks and thus govern how they're used, the CE mark is not regulated. Anyone can slap a CE mark on anything. Only when questioned by a country's regulating agency does the manufacture have to supply a file backing up the mark. That rarely happens. Thus the CE mark has become essentially meaningless.
