Visqueen simplifies CE challenges
Manufacturer of damp proof membranes, damp proof courses and gas barrier systems, Visqueen Building Products has launched a new Essential Guide to CE Marking for Structural Waterproofing and Gas Protection.
Drawing on Visqueen’s extensive knowledge as a leading authority on structural waterproofing and gas protection, the 8 page document has been designed specifically to help stockists, engineers and contractors understand their obligations under the new EU Construction Products Regulation.
Cameron Yates, Product Manager at Visqueen, explains: “The introduction of the new CE Mark represents a major change for the construction industry and we want to make the process of embracing the new legislation as simple as possible for our customers and key partners.
“The new Visqueen Essential Guide to CE Marking for Structural Waterproofing and Gas Protection distils the key facts and offers a range of pertinent and valuable information in an easy to understand and readily accessible way. It will enable those specifying our products to make the best possible choice, and those involved in selling our range to offer their customers the best possible advice.”
As well as outlining the requirements and rationale behind the new CE Mark, the Visqueen Essential Guide to Structural Waterproofing and Gas Protection features product selectors and comparison guides to simplify product specification in line with the new legislation.
An extensive FAQs section also enables users of the guide to quickly and easily find answers to a whole range of common questions and queries.
Cameron Yates concludes: “As a business, Visqueen has always believed in going the extra mile to meet our customers’ needs. The introduction of our new Essential Guide to CE Marking for Structural Waterproofing and Gas Protection is just the latest example of that commitment in practice. It highlights our focus on offering technically advanced products backed by the very highest levels of service and support.”
