Construction Products

Construction product manufacturers face the most complex regulatory transition in a generation — UKCA, CE marking, EU CPR and incoming Digital Product Passport mandates, all at once

Whether you manufacture insulation, windows, boards, structural components or any other construction product, selling into UK and EU markets has never demanded more documentation, more data and more traceability. Eco Wise provides construction product manufacturers from around the world with the compliance intelligence, Digital Product Passports and asset lifecycle services to meet every requirement — in one subscription.

What construction product manufacturers are navigating

• Mandatory UKCA marking for construction products placed on the Great Britain market — separate from CE marking with its own Declaration of Performance requirements
• CE marking under the EU Construction Products Regulation (CPR) — harmonised European standards (hEN), AVCP systems and third-party assessment requirements vary by product family
• Incoming EU Digital Product Passport mandates under ESPR — delegated acts for construction products are being developed now; manufacturers who wait until publication will face a compliance crisis
• Declarations of Performance and test certificates required per product model per market — significant documentation burden across broad product ranges
• Distributor and specifier data requirements — architects, engineers and main contractors increasingly require verified, structured product data before specifying
• Carbon footprint and LCA requirements growing — Green Public Procurement criteria and net-zero supply chain commitments are making EPDs a commercial prerequisite, not just a regulatory one
• Building Safety Act (UK) Golden Thread requirements — construction products must be traceable from manufacturing to installation in higher-risk buildings

Why act now

1. EU ESPR construction product DPP delegated acts are being developed now — manufacturers who prepare early will have a competitive advantage at the point of mandate
2. UKCA marking enforcement is active — non-compliant products are being challenged at the border and in market surveillance checks
3. EU CPR revision is raising the bar — product families previously exempt are being brought into scope under new harmonised standards
4. Building Safety Act Golden Thread obligations are live — construction products in higher-risk buildings must be traceable from factory to installation
5. Net-zero supply chain commitments across the construction sector are making EPDs a commercial requirement — specifiers are already asking for them
