The BBA continues to be covered by the existing accreditation arrangements. These will be automatically transferred to allow the BBA to carry out the same functions in support of UKCA / UK(NI) Marking.
Those Standards that were previously accredited under the CPR in support of CE marking have already been transferred to support the UKCA marking process.
We are in discussions with UKAS to agree the most efficient processes for adding new documents to our existing scope of accreditation.
Building Regulations and guidance have been amended across the UK several times during 2022, mainly covering fire safety, energy economy and ventilation.
BBA Certificates are to be updated to allow for these new requirements, but users should be aware that this will take some time and that, in the meantime, the Regulations quoted and the associated comments may not be valid. This does not affect the performance characteristics quoted in Certificates and potential users should ensure that these parameters enable a product to satisfy the requirements of the current Regulations.
