Construction Products Testing

As part of the response to the Hackitt Report, government has engaged the CPA, in partnership with Adroit Economics and PRP Architects, to conduct research into the testing of construction products. The research will examine the current testing regime, the risks within it and conduct a gap analysis to identify where new product standards may improve safety. The outcomes of the research will provide a prioritisation framework that will identify standards for the Construction Products Standards Committee (CPSC) to consider.
