EN 1090 Certificate

What is the EN 1090 Certificate?

The EN 1090 Certificate is a mandatory conformity certificate required for placing steel and aluminum structural components on the market in accordance with European Union technical legislation. Manufacturers holding this certificate have the right to affix the CE marking to their products, allowing them to circulate freely within the European Economic Area (EEA). The EN 1090 standard specifically covers the production, welding, assembly, and quality control of load-bearing structural components. It also requires manufacturers to establish a Factory Production Control (FPC) system and ensure the traceability of production processes. The EN 1090 Certificate has become a legal obligation under the European Construction Products Regulation (CPR). With this certificate, companies not only fulfill legal responsibilities but also gain international competitive advantage. ISO Star Global offers professional support for all your technical and consultancy needs during this process.

What is the Purpose of the EN 1090 Certificate?

The main purpose of the EN 1090 Certificate is to guarantee that steel and aluminum structural components used in the construction sector are manufactured safely, durably, with quality, and in accordance with European Union standards. Thanks to this certificate, the design, production stages, welding processes, assembly applications, and final quality controls of structural elements are carried out according to specific technical criteria. This not only increases product quality but also enhances construction safety. It is accepted as a safety standard, especially in public projects, large-scale infrastructure investments, and industrial facilities. EN 1090 enables manufacturers to use the CE marking, facilitating the free movement of products in the European market. Additionally, this certificate demonstrates not only the technical competence of businesses but also the strength of their quality management systems. As a result, brand reputation strengthens, customer trust increases, and international competitiveness is gained. ISO Star Global supports you throughout the entire process, helping your business achieve legal, technical, and commercial benefits.

What Are the Benefits of the EN 1090 Certificate?

Having the EN 1090 Certificate provides many advantages for businesses. With this certificate, manufacturers can fulfill legal requirements, use the CE mark, and easily offer their products in the European market. At the same time, the quality level of the products is certified to comply with international standards.

• Provides free movement within the European market.
• Proves compliance with legal regulations.
• Improves product quality and safety.
• Enhances the reliability of the brand.
• Increases the chance of being preferred in tenders and public projects.

What Does the EN 1090 Certificate Cover?

The EN 1090 standard refers to a broad framework covering the design, production, assembly, and related quality controls of steel and aluminum structural components. One of the most important elements of the standard is its integration with Quality Assurance Systems for Welded Manufacturing. Particularly, companies engaged in welded manufacturing must work in harmony with the ISO 3834 series, which is also within the scope of EN 1090.

• Material selection and traceability
• Control of production and welding procedures
• Personnel competence and welder certification
• Product testing and inspection processes
• Quality management and Factory Production Control (FPC) systems

Why Obtain the EN 1090 Certificate?

The EN 1090 Certificate is a legal requirement, especially for manufacturers targeting the European Union market. For construction sector products made of steel and aluminum, the CE marking is mandatory, and this certificate is essential to obtain it. Without the CE mark, it is not possible to legally sell products in the European market. At the same time, for companies aiming to participate in large-scale national and international projects, this certificate provides a competitive advantage. Due to increasing quality and safety expectations, many public institutions and private organizations require suppliers to have the EN 1090 Certificate. The certificate demonstrates that the company’s production processes comply with quality management systems, as well as its adherence to legal regulations and industry professionalism. As a result, customer trust increases, brand image strengthens, and opportunities for long-term collaborations arise. With ISO Star Global, obtaining this certificate is both easy and reliable. Our expert team guides your business at every stage of the process.

Who Can Obtain the EN 1090 Certificate?

The EN 1090 Certificate is necessary for all companies that produce or use steel or aluminum structural components in construction projects. The certificate covers many actors from main manufacturers of structural elements to subcontractors processing these parts.

• Enterprises engaged in welded manufacturing

How to Obtain the EN 1090 Certificate?

To obtain the EN 1090 Certificate, the company’s current production structure and quality systems must first be adapted to the EN 1090 standard. During this process, a certification application is submitted, and a factory production control system must be established.

• Analysis of the current situation and gap assessment
• Preparation of required documentation
• Establishment of the FPC (Factory Production Control) system
• Implementation according to the EN 1090 standard
• Audit and certification by an authorized body

Where to Obtain the EN 1090 Certificate?

The EN 1090 Certificate is issued by authorized and accredited certification bodies under the European Construction Products Regulation. However, applying to an accredited institution alone is not enough to obtain the certificate. Just as important as the certifying body is the consultancy, technical guidance, and documentation support provided throughout the process.
