Products covered fall under the Construction Products (Amendment etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 and the Construction Products (Amendment etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations 2020. These regulations in Great Britain cover a range of construction products, and routes to achieve CE marking for construction products. The overarching legal framework for CE marking recognition in Great Britain (GB), is the 2011 regulation that can be found here: Regulation (EU) No 305/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 March 2011 laying down harmonised conditions for the marketing of construction products and repealing Council Directive 89/106/EEC (Text with EEA relevance) (legislation.gov.uk). The Construction Product Regulations will continue to be in force and apply to all products within scope. This extension applies to all products within scope. These are products which are covered by a designated standard. The list of the designated standards can be found here: Designated standards: construction products - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)) or subject to a technical assessment, please see a list here: 'Pre-Exit' European Assessment Documents: construction products - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk).

Extension of CE ('Conformité Européenne') marking for construction products in Great Britain

The United Kingdom (UK) Government has announced that the recognition of Conformité Européenne' (CE) marking for a subset of construction products placed on the market in Great Britain will continue beyond the previously stated deadline of the 30 June 2025. This legislation applies to Great Britain (England, Scotland and Wales). The longer-term future of CE marking (and the UK's 'United Kingdom Conformity Assessed' (UKCA) marking) in Great Britain will be considered as part of the system wide reform of the construction products regulatory regime. Any subsequent changes to the recognition of CE marking would be subject to a minimum 2-year transitional period.
