Your Definitive Guide to CE Marking
The EU Proposal: New Harmonized Standards for placing Construction Products on the Market is published. This is a short summary of the content of the proposal. You can also find a link to the full draft.
Today, the European Commission has published new lists of European harmonised standards for the Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC) and the ATEX Directive (2014/34/EU), and a new list of EADs for the Construction Products Regulation. See our video announcement:
The Lists of harmonised standards are added to the CE Marking Library. Also the standards database will be updated shortly.

Here is a great video explaining about CE marking of fabricated structural steelwork under the Construction Products Regulation (305/2011). The video is also supported by a information rich “encyclopedia”: https://www.steelconstruction.info/CE_marking. Although the information aims at the UK industry, most of it applies to any company that intends to make available fabricated structural steelwork in the European Union.
This morning, the European Commission published an updated list of
This morning, the European Commission published an updated list of the European harmonized standards that pertain to the Construction Products Directive (89/106/EEC). The standards on this list may be used by construction products manufacturers to prove that their construction products complies with the essential requirements of this directive.
This updated list is important to all manufacturers of CE marked construction products that have used European harmonized standards to prove CE compliance. If you have applied standards to prove compliance with the aforementioned directive, we recommend you to check the new list of standards to see if any of the standard you applied have been updated, or whether there are new standards available for your products. When standards have been updated by this list, you need to re-evaluate your products against the updated standard and update your Declaration of Conformity.
On the list for the Construction Products Directive (89/106/EEC), the following standards are added or amended:
EN 54-25:2008/AC:2012 Fire detection and fire alarm systems – Part 25: Components using radio links

EN 15102:2007+A1:2011 Decorative wall coverings – Roll and panel form
EN 15821:2010 Multi-firing sauna stoves fired by natural wood logs – Requirements and test methods
The list of European harmonized standards (“2012 C176/01“) has been added to our CE Marking Library.
This European Standard specifies requirements for screed material for use in floor construction internally. To support the aim of achieving a performance related standard, as far as practicable this standard refers only to the properties of the product and not to its method of manufacture, except when this is unavoidable in the description of hte characteristics of the product.

This European Standard is applicable to factory made rendering/plastering mortar based on inorganic binders for external (rendering) and internal (plastering) use on walls, ceilings, columns and partitions. It contains definitions and final performance requirements. It does not covers mortars where calcium sulphate binder is the principle active binding agent. Calcium sulphate binder can be usedr as an addtional binder together with air lime. If air lime is the principle active binding component, the rendering/plastering mortar is covered by this standard. If the calcium sulphate binder is the principle active binding component, the mortar is covered by EN 13279. The classification is carried out by the producer of the mortar. Special fire resistant- and acoustical mortars, mortars for structural repair and surface treatments of building elements such as materials for smoothing or trueing, paints, coatings, thin-layer organic renders/plasters and prefabricated units (e.g. boards) are not dealt with in this standard. This standard covers redering/plastering mortars defined in clause 3 with the exception of site mde rendering/plastering mortars. However, this standard or part of this standard may be used in conjunction with codes of application and national specifications covering site made mortars.
