PAS 2000: Construction products – Bringing safe products to market – Code of practice has just been published for public comment.
The PAS seeks to describe the framework against which construction product manufacturers can show that they have taken all reasonable steps to enable them to demonstrate that their products are safe to be placed on the market. This will cover the intended uses for which they are marketed and will enable them to deliver comprehensive, accurate and reliable evidence to support their statements about the safety and performance of their products.
I urge all construction product manufacturers to read the PAS, understand the implications, and provide comments where appropriate.
The draft PAS is available here and the deadline for comments is 18th August. Comments must be submitted through the Standard Developments Portal.
To support this PAS, BSI are also hosting a webinar on July 30th, 2-3pm. Further details of this can be found here.
