Declaration of Performance (DoP)

 

Since 1st July 2013 the Construction Product Regulation (CPR) requires that manufacturers make a Declaration of performance (DoP) of their products.

 

The Declaration of Performance (DoP) is the key concept in the Construction Products Regulation (CPR).

 

The DoP gives the manufacturer the opportunity to deliver the information about the essential characteristics of his product he wants to deliver to the market.

 

The manufacturer shall draw up a Declaration of Performance when a product covered by a harmonised standard (EN) or a European Technical Assessment (ETA) is placed on the market.

 

The manufacturer, by drawing up his DoP, assumes the responsibility for the conformity of the construction product with the declared performance.

 

On the basis of the information contained in the DoP, the user will decide to buy, amongst all the products available on the market, the one which is fit for the use he intends to give to such product and he assumes the full responsibility of such decision.

 

Declarations of performance (DoP) available on request.
