Construction Products Regulations legal requirement for load-bearing steel and aluminium structures or structural components to be UKCA and CE+UKNI marked: BS EN 1090

What is BS EN 1090?

CE marking of construction products placed in the European and UK markets became mandatory where the product is covered by a harmonised European Standard (hEN). Post-Brexit, the UKCA has introduced new markings, UKCA and CE+UKNI, that will replace CE marking for the UK. The BS EN 1090 series covers fabricated steel and aluminium components for ‘permanent incorporation into construction works’. It includes components used directly in construction, those sold as kits for construction, and those used in composite steel and concrete products.

  • Opens up more markets within which you can work
