Placing construction products on the Northern Ireland market
Guidance for businesses placing construction products on the Northern Ireland market and the correct markings to use.
This guidance refers to the requirement in some circumstances for the UK(NI) indication for construction products, sometimes referred to as the UK(NI) marking or UKNI marking. The terms refer to the same thing.
Manufacturers placing products on the Northern Ireland market should note:
- Products must meet EU harmonised European standards, and bear either the CE marking or the CE marking & UK(NI) indication to be placed on the Northern Ireland market.
- Goods with the UKCA (UK Conformity Assessed) mark alone are not accepted on the Northern Ireland market.
- Where third-party conformity assessment has been carried out by a UK approved body, the economic operator must affix the UK(NI) indication in addition to CE marking. Where the conformity assessment has been carried out by an EU recognised notified body, only the CE marking is required.
