I disagree with the statement that CE requirements dictate colors. I am not aware of any CE requirements anyway. The CE marking is only an indication that a product complies with the applicable EU Directives in force at the time of manufacture, nothing more, nothing less. It might be worth a try to ask this customer where this CE color requirement came from. Maybe this customer doesn't understand the requirements or has simply been given inaccurate information. Just my 2 cents worth. Regards, Ron Pickard
