Certified & Compliant: Why Tested Systems Matter in Offsite Delivery
Certified & Compliant: Why Tested Systems matter in offsite delivery
Offsite construction, is transforming the construction sector by increasing speed, reducing waste, and improving quality. Yet as this modern method takes hold, the challenge of compliance with regulatory standards grows alongside it. Tremco CPG Offsite Solutions is helping to meet that challenge by providing certified, compliant systems and expert support that reduce risk and streamline project delivery.
Compliance Challenges in Offsite Construction
Offsite construction involves assembling building components or modules in a factory before transporting them to site. This shift from traditional, site-based processes brings unique compliance issues:
- Complex regulations: Offsite systems often don’t fit neatly into existing guidance, creating uncertainty for architects, contractors and installers
- Installer competence and quality assurance: Well engineered systems can fail to deliver their designed compliance if installed incorrectly or without proper oversight and documentation.
- Documentation and traceability: Offsite projects typically rely on extensive documentation from a supplier, as well as testing information, which must be backed with on-site inspections and approvals
These factors make compliance a very important matter; ensuring that meeting standards and managing performance is supported with clear evidence.
How Certified Systems Reduce Technical and Regulatory Risk
Certification provides a clear way to deter compliance and risk issues in offsite construction. This can be achieved through:
- Certified systems, including products with third-party approvals such as British Board of Agrément (BBA) certificates. These third party approvals offer regulators documented proof of compliance with specific standards
- Proper certification clarifies exactly where and how a system can be used. This prevents misuse or misinterpretation, such as applying a system outside the conditions under which it was tested
- Technical consistency: certified systems have been rigorously tested under controlled conditions, meaning their performance in areas is verified and repeatable
Having certified systems provides peace of mind, offering both technical confidence and regulatory engagement from factory to finished building. Tremco CPG Offsite Solutions can help you navigate compliance with confidence.
