Intertek offers a comprehensive suite of Notified Body services in support of compliance to the EU Construction Products Regulation No 305/2011
The Construction Products Regulation (CPR) No 305/2011, is intended to make products arriving in any European Union country safe to use and install. The regulation, repeals the Construction Products Directive (CPD) No 89/106/EEC.
To sell products within the EU, it is mandatory to apply the CE mark showing products comply with all applicable Directives such as the CPR, EMC, and the Low Voltage Directive (LVD). The CPR has 4 levels of product verification that start at self-declaration (System 4) and end in product validation by a Notified Body (System 1+, System 1 and System 2+).
As a Notified Body in the EU, Intertek's scope covers products that require the highest category of validation - (AVCP System 1) which must involve the independent expertise of a Notified Body, and an FPC (Factory Production Control) audit.
The European Union recognizes that products vary greatly in their ‘risks’ to the users and the public. They have defined 6 essential requirements or characteristics which need to be addressed (by committee) and satisfied, when relevant, by the product prior to being put on the market.
Essential Requirements
- Mechanical resistance and stability
- Safety in the case of fire
- Hygiene, health and the environment
- Safety in use
- Protection against noise
- Energy economy and heat retention
- Sustainable use of natural resources
