Construction Products Directive
89/106/EEC
What is the Construction Products Directive?
The Construction Products Directive (CPD) applies to you if you
manufacture and distribute construction products within the
European Economic Area.
What does the directive cover?
The Construction Products Directive (CPD) has a very broad scope
and applies to all types of products from welding consumables to
building materials to road construction products. If a technical
specification has been published for the product concerned, you
need to comply with this specification.
All products covered by the directive must meet the relevant
essential safety requirements defined within Annex I of the CPD.
These requirements fall into the following categories:
- 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.
