Do you know.....

What’s the meaning of a standard reference marked over a product?

Every manufacturer is free to declare, under its own responsibility,
that a product produced by him satisfies the standard he says.

But that fact isn’t always verified by AENOR, being only the
manufacturer declaration.

Look for the AENOR Mark close to the applying standard if you
want to ensure that the product is checked by an independent
third party.

That AENOR Mark is recognised by
the Ministry of Public Works, registered
in the quality distinctive registration of
Building Technical Code (CTE)?

That acknowledgment allows carrying out the products work
reception control only showing the AENOR Certificate, what
facilitates the entry of the products in the work without testing
their properties, so the work property can save time and money.

What are the differences between AENOR N Mark and Marca CE marking?

AENOR Mark is a voluntary certification that belongs to AENOR that involves a strict surveillance made by AENOR, over the technical properties of the products and the commercial use of the AENOR Mark.

CE marking is a regulatory requirement that means that the
manufacturer declares that the product satisfies the applicable
harmonized standard.

For plastic pipes and fittings, the manufacturer will set in the
future the CE marking over a product without the participation of
any external entity verifying that affirmation.

Why is not possible to find Marca CE marking over plastic pipes and fittings?

To bear the CE marking over a product is needed an approved European harmonized standard for that product published in the Official Journal of the European Union.

That hasn’t happened yet for plastic pipes and fittings. The standards are now in different stages in its approval way.

That the assessment of the conformity is
done by the AENOR Plastics Technical
Certification Committee?

In that Committee, in addition to AENOR technical services, all the
interested sectors are represented: laboratories, evaluation entities, users, manufacturers and national and local government representatives.

That there are more than 200 factories
with plastic pipes and fittings certified
with AENOR Mark and they are
located in 20 countries?

That CEIS, AENOR’s laboratory, is
among the three most important
laboratories in Europe to test plastic
pipes and fittings, carrying out more
than 6000 tests every year for AENOR
Mark.
