Certification of construction products

Certification of construction products

Certification of construction products according to the applicable Council Directive 89/106/EEC and BM-GKM-KvVM Decree No. 3/2003 of 25 January 2003.
In order to place a construction product on the market it has to satisfy the requirements of European standards and marked with CE conformity marking. CE marking can only be earned after a successful – specialized, type and product-specific – procedure of testing and attestation.

ÉMI-TÜV SÜD Ltd. was granted accreditation in 2008 for the testing, conformity attestation and certification of construction products specifically for pre-cast concrete, reinforced concrete, pre-stressed concrete, lightweight concrete, masonry blocks and other related products. 

Certification of Construction Products

There are many preconditions to obtaining a certificate of conformity and placing CE marking on a product. On one hand manufacturers are responsible for the attestation that products are in total conformity with the corresponding product-specific safety and technical requirements and specifications of the Construction Product Directive; on the other hand, being operators of series production, they also have to prove that they are capable of maintaining the required quality of the products in case of continuous factory production.

An approved certification (notified) body has to assess and monitor factory production of the manufacturer – according to their agreement, but in periodic intervals – in order to assess and judge whether the approved and certified factory production conditions are still being maintained.

If a product falls under the jurisdiction of harmonized standards or other technical specifications, or rules accepted at European level, testing of conformity with the requirements of the Construction Product Directive can be easily carried out by reference to the relevant essential requirements and the interpretative documents.
