Commission Delegated Decision (EU) 2018/779

of 19 February 2018

on the applicable systems to assess and verify constancy of performance of metal-faced sandwich panels for structural use pursuant to Regulation (EU) No 305/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 305/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 March 2011 laying down harmonised conditions for the marketing of construction products and repealing Council Directive 89/106/EEC^f1, and in particular Article 28 and Article 60(h) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

An appropriate decision for assessment and verification of constancy of performance does not exist for metal-faced sandwich panels for structural use (‘sandwich panels’). It is therefore necessary to establish which systems of assessment and verification of constancy of performance are applicable to the sandwich panels.

(2)

This Decision should only apply to products not within the scope of other corresponding acts of Union law. Thus, it should not apply to metal-faced sandwich panels not intended for structural use since they are already covered by Commission Decision 98/436/EC^f2 and Commission Decision 98/437/EC^f3,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
