Guidance for Specifiers

Categories: Other Guides

Under the Construction Products Regulation from 1 July 2013:

  • Building materials, components and assemblies will have to be CE marked.
  • On projects funded with public money procurement should be based on the use of CE marked products.
  • Quasi-public bodies such as NHBC will require the use of CE marked products where applicable.

    • The Building Regulations already give CE marking as the principal means of showing acceptable standards for materials.

    The presence of a CE Mark on a product does not imply fitness for purpose. CE Marking does not take away from the Specifier the responsibility to specify appropriate products capable of delivering the required performance.
