On 10 April 2024, Parliament adopted the text of the provisional agreement between Parliament and Council on a new construction products regulation. The Rapporteur is Mr Christian Doleschal (EPP). After formal approval by the Council, the new regulation will be published in the Official Journal and will become binding and directly applicable for member states.
In a nutshell, under the new rules:
- The publication of standards will be faster and more efficient
- All product information will be available in a single place via a Digital Product Passport
- The inclusion of used construction products will boost reuse and remanufacturing.
After the vote, the Rapporteur said: "After years of a backlog of standards, we have successfully paved the way for the new construction products regulation and taken a significant stride towards the digitalisation of the construction ecosystem. The digital product passport will revolutionise access to critical information on construction products, encompassing safety details, usage instructions, and declarations of performance and conformity. Additionally, the new construction products regulation will streamline procedures, alleviate administrative burden and diminish trade barriers for our companies. Adoption of this regulation is an important milestone for our European internal market!"
