Certification Body for Products

Germany

The accreditation certificate issued to the Research Institute for Thermal Protection in Munich, valid from 02.12.2024, allows the institute to conduct conformity assessment activities according to DIN EN ISO/IEC 17065:2013. It complies with legal and normative requirements, including sectoral programs, for voluntary certification programs in thermal insulation materials like EPS, PU, mineral wool, and foam glass. The certification scope covers technical specifications for thermal insulation products in construction, including materials specified in EN standards, for building and industrial applications. It includes various construction insulation products such as pressed polyurethane foam, animal fiber insulation, expanded perlite, bound polystyrene, silica aerogel, extruded polystyrene foam, loose mineral wool, foam glass gravel, and structural bearings. The certification adheres to European technical specifications and regulations, including external thermal insulation systems with plaster, allowing updates to new technical specifications without prior approval. Subcontracting tasks are involved, and compliance with the Construction Products Regulation is ensured, with abbreviations like EAD, ETAG, and FIW München used.
