Slide 5
Construction Product Regulation
General Information:
Content of CPR:
EU-wide harmonized product and testing standards
CE-marking and Declaration of Performance (DoP)
Member states have to accept CE-marked products without any hindrance, but member states are allowed to regulate the application
The declaration of performance shall be supplied in the language or the languages required by the Member State where the product is made available (Art. 7,4)

Slide 7
Construction Product Regulation
Changes because of CPR:
Significance of CE-markingAs of today the manufacturer has to document by the CE-Mark
as well as the compliance with all applicable requirements laid down in the CPR and in other relevant Union harmonization legislation providing for its affixing.
CE-marking has to be based on the DoPContent of DoP results from the harmonized technical specifications(hENs, e. g. EN 14509, EN 14782, EN 1090-1; or ETAs)
Manufacturerthat he takes the responsibility for the conformity of the product with the declared performance (DoP)
Slide 8
Construction Product Regulation
Changes because of CPR:
Definition of economic operators
Manufacturer
Authorised representative
Importer
Distributor
Slide 9
Construction Product Regulation
Changes because of CPR:
Definition of economic operators
Manufacturer: Fabricates the product, distributes it under his own brand, is reponsible for DoP and CE
Manufacturer: Appoints an authorised representative and transfers some of his obligations to him
Importer: places a product, manufactured outside of the European Economic Area, onto the European market (e. g. as an own trademark)
Distributor: Makes a product available on the market (e. g. as an own trademark or with the manufacturers’ trademark)
Slide 10
Construction Product Regulation
Changes because of CPR:
An importer or distributor shall be considered a manufacturer for the purposes of the CPR
and shall be subject to the obligations of a manufacturer pursuant to Article 11,
where he places a product on the market under his name or trademark or modifies a construction product already placed on the market in such a way that conformity with the declaration of performance may be affected.
Slide 11
Construction Product Regulation
Tasks for those responsible for placing the product on the market:
Determination of application
Determination of performance
Declaration of performance
e. g.:
Structuralapplication acc. to EN 1090-1
Self-supportingapplication acc.

Slide 12
Construction Product Regulation
Tasks for those responsible for placing the product on the market:
Commissioning of a notified body based on the system of Assessment and Verification of Constancy of Performance (AVCP) valid for the product
If mandatory:Execution of external inspection and surveillance in each plant based on the requirements of the harmonized specification (EN or ETA)
System Type of notified body Type of certificate

Slide 13
Construction Product Regulation
Obligations of the notified body:
Notified bodies shall provide the other notified bodies with relevant information on issues relating to negative and, on request, positive results from these assessments and/or verifications (Art. 53.2)
Notified bodies shall inform the notifying authority of the following (Art. 53.1) e.g.:
any refusal, restriction, suspension or withdrawal of certificates
any request for information on assessment and/or verification of constancy of performance activities carried out which they have received from market surveillance authorities
Slide 14
Construction Product Regulation
Assessment and verification of constancy of performance (Art. 6):
The declaration of performance shall express the performance of construction products in relation to the essential characteristics of those products
Standards (e.g. EN 14782, EN 1090-1 or EN 14509) or ETAs define essential characteristics
Such performances have to be declared which are mandatory in the state where the product is placed on the market
national specialties
The responsible for placing the product on the market has to declare the performance of at least 1 essential characteristic.

DoP
DoP does not replace the application certificate/document
Member states can define own characteristics for the application
e.g. compliance with special levels or classes of performancee.g. national approvals for application
DoP can be helpful to judge the performance of a product
DoP has to be archived on the building site by the end user
DoP
has to be handed over to the end user actively
Slide 19

DoP
Recommendation to the manufacturer:
Declaration of many essential characteristics on the DoP
This promotes:
Comparability of the construction products
Strengthening of reliability
„One voice “
Support „Transparency” on the market
Application in all/many member states
