Oh, of course. The company I work for makes UL certified equipment for the US market in Europe with no problems at all. Those products just cannot be sold in Europe.

When (or if?) Brexit happens, it would make sense to harmonise UK technical standard with EU ones but whether that is politically feasible or not is another question. See vacuum cleaner efficiency standards for example. If we don’t harmonise, a small divergence of standards may make UK goods unsellable in the EU.
