The British Board of Agrément (BBA), the leading UK certification body for construction products, is collaborating with Bureau Veritas (BV), a world leader in testing, inspection, and certification, to deliver dual CE and UKCA marking to manufacturers of construction products according to EU and UKCA Construction Products Regulations.

“At the BBA we are committed to removing complexity for our clients; such as the changes post-Brexit and the transition to UKCA Marking. We believe in helping our clients get the results they need, as quickly as possible. This collaboration with Bureau Veritas, means that we can support our clients who have manufacturing facilities in a number of European countries. Through working together, we help our clients save time and cost that often accrue as a result of additional inspection. With the added benefit of reducing our carbon footprints through avoiding unnecessary travel.”

Jason Harries, Product Lead, BBA

“We’re pleased to collaborate with the British Board of Agrément (BBA) to provide services for certification and surveillance of Factory Production Control (FPC) for the manufacture of construction products.
