With CE Marking becoming compulsory from 1st July 2013, the GGF has set up a range of comprehensive support and guidance services. The Construction Products Regulation (CPR) is enforceable across the entire EU, therefore, from 1st July 2013, all construction products covered by a harmonised European Standard (hEN) - that is one with an Annex ZA - will need to have a Declaration of Performance (DoP) made and be CE marked in accordance with the requirements of the hEN covering that product when placed on the market. The GGF has developed the "Route to CE Marking" micro-site exclusively for GGF Members. These routes take the form of flowcharts for the various product types and specifications, with accompanying explanatory documents intended to guide GGF Members through the CE Marking maze. By reviewing the flowcharts, GGF Members will be able to establish where they are in terms of the process, what information, in particular with reference to Initial Type Testing (ITT), they already have; Determine what extra product testing or information is needed and what other actions they need to complete; Work their way through the CPR/CE Marking maze.
