Independent testing and certification for CE Marking
BSRIA is an independent laboratory for testing metal, steel, concrete and plastic chimneys, flues and fittings to the BSEN standards for CE Marking.
Currently it is mandatory for chimney products sold in the EU to carry the CE mark. The marking may only be affixed after successful completion of testing, auditing of factory production control and the issue of a certificate by an independent accredited authority.
