CPR: Meeting the requirements

Manufacturers have a legal obligation to draw up a Declaration of Performance (DoP) which identifies a product, details its intended use, and features its reaction to certain fire performance characteristics.Once placed on the market, these products are required to carry the CE marking and Class of Performance on the product label.
Importers and distributors must ensure they only market CPR-compliant products.
