# Commission Decision of 14 January 2011 on the procedure for attesting the conformity of construction products pursuant to Article 20(2) of Council Directive 89/106/EEC as regards sealants for non-structural use in joints in buildings and pedestrian walkways (notified under document C(2011) 62) (Text with EEA relevance) (2011/19/EU), Division: Systems of attestation of conformity

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

For the product(s) and intended use(s) listed below, CEN/Cenelec is requested to specify the following system(s) of attestation of conformity in the relevant harmonised European standards:
Products/materials for which a clearly identifiable stage in the production process results in an improvement of the reaction to fire classification (e.g. an addition of fire retardants or a limiting of organic material).
Products/materials not covered by footnote (*).
Products/materials that do not require to be tested for reaction to fire (e.g. Products/materials of classes A1 according to Commission Decision 96/603/EC).
System 1: See point (i) of Section 2 of Annex III to Directive 89/106/EEC, without audit-testing of samples.
System 3: See point (ii) of Section 2 of Annex III to Directive 89/106/EEC, second possibility.
System 4: See point (ii) of Section 2 of Annex III to Directive 89/106/EEC, third possibility.

The specification for the system should be such that it can be implemented even where performance does not need to be determined for a certain characteristic, because at least one Member State has no legal requirement at all for such characteristic (see Article 2(1) of Directive 89/106/EEC and, where applicable, clause 1.2.3 of the Interpretative Documents). In those cases the verification of such a characteristic must not be imposed on the manufacturer if he does not wish to declare the performance of the product in that respect.
