Obligations of the manufacturer for CE labelling of construction products
As a manufacturer of construction products, it is advisable to observe certain obligations in connection with CE labelling in advance. This includes drawing up a declaration of performance in accordance with EU regulations and affixing the CE marking to the product as a sign of conformity with the applicable standards. The affixing of CE markings is not permitted without a declaration of performance. In addition, the technical documentation and the declaration of performance should be kept for at least ten years. To ensure product quality, suitable procedures should be introduced to continuously check the declared performance during series production. This includes spot checks and the documentation of complaints and product recalls. In addition, it is advisable that the construction products bear an identification mark and contain information on the manufacturer's identity as well as instructions for use and safety information. In the event of non-compliance, immediate corrective action should be taken and the national authorities should be informed immediately.The experts at easyCE will be happy to help you prepare the necessary documents for conformity assessment, including product analysis, risk assessment and final declaration of performance. We can also check your instructions for use for conformity or create compliant instructions for use for your construction product.
Safe use of CE-marked construction products
As users of CE-marked products, we advise you to use the construction products exclusively in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. Unauthorised modifications or manipulations should be avoided, as they not only invalidate the conformity of the product, but can also endanger the safety of persons, property and the environment. Compliance with the intended use as specified by the manufacturer in the instructions for use is essential to prevent the product from being used in a manner contrary to its intended purpose. Deviations from these instructions can significantly increase the risk of accidents or injuries and impair the effectiveness of the built-in safety measures. If specific adjustments are required, it is essential that these are carried out exclusively by qualified specialists in accordance with the manufacturer's guidelines.The experts at easyCE are available to answer all your questions about conformity. Do you doubt the CE conformity of a construction product you have purchased or are about to purchase? easyCE will be happy to check the CE documentation for you.
Responsibility of the exporter for CE labelling
As an exporter of construction products to EU member states, it is your responsibility to ensure that your products comply with the applicable CE labelling requirements. It is therefore very important to ensure that your products are properly CE labelled before export. This labelling is an essential part of and confirmation of conformity with EU regulations and standards. Proper labelling can avoid potential problems and ensure smooth compliance. An exporter can be considered a manufacturer if he exports a construction product under his name or trade mark or modifies it in a way that could affect conformity.

In particular, this includes preparing a declaration of performance that explains the key features of your products and confirms their conformity with EU standards.
Responsibility of the importer for CE labelling
The obligations of an importer in the context of CE labelling include ensuring that all construction products marketed by them in the EU comply with the applicable requirements. This includes checking that the manufacturer carries out the necessary performance assessments and draws up the technical documentation and the declaration of performance. The importer is also responsible for ensuring that the products are properly labelled and accompanied by all necessary documentation. An importer is considered a manufacturer if he places a construction product on the market under his name or trade mark or modifies it in such a way that conformity could be affected. In this case, he is subject to the same obligations as a manufacturer under the relevant CE regulations.The experts at easyCE will be happy to help you prepare the necessary documents for conformity assessment, including product analysis, risk assessment and final declaration of performance.
