Introduction The conference will give an overview of the KEYMARK System as a uniform Product Quality Mark for European Consumers in general and will provide details of the VDI / KEYMARK System of thermal insulation products for buildings and industrial applications. The product s compliance with the CE Marking only ensures compliance with the minimum legal requirements for thermal insulation products, basically, their reaction to fire classification. Thus, the mandatory CE marking only focuses on the basic requirements met by the products, based on the Construction Product Regulation, and therefore voluntary product certification encompasses all the characteristics defined in the product standards. The KEYMARK is the European Certification Mark showing the conformity of products with European Standards. Whereas CE marking shows the observance of legal minimum requirements, the KEYMARK provides a real benefit for the Target groups Notifying authorities and accreditation bodies who are interested to learn answers to questions they usually do not raise, but perhaps should. Certification bodies interested in finding out who they can rely on as far as subcontracting testing for certification purposes is concerned. Market surveillance authorities and users to see Parties involved Manufacturers: Declercq Isolatie Isodec, DEUTSCHE ROCKWOOL Mineralwoll GmbH & Co. OHG, KAIMANN GmbH, Knauf Insulation GmbH, Paroc Group Oy, Pavatex SA, Pittsburgh Corning Europe, Recticel, Rockwool A/S, Rockwool Finland Oy, ROCKWOOL FRANCE SAS, Saint-Gobain ISOVER A/S, Rockwool A/S, Saint Gobain Isover G+H AG, Sager AG, Steico SE, SYN- THESIA INTERNACIONAL S.L.U.

The legally requested CE marking for construction products can be completed thereby in a meaningful way. In the EU member states, an organized and effective market monitoring is rare. For this reason, voluntary product certification, documented by the KEYMARK, is an important instrument for increasing confidence and encouraging the harmonization of national certification schemes. Registered laboratories, the experts in the field of thermal testing working with identified reference test equipment will share experiences and will inform how they can improve to ensure the high quality of the supervised products. The main instrument for that are the implementation of round robins and audits to achieve a transparency and a level of fair playing field, both for manufacturers and laboratories. it confirmed that there is more to it than being accredited and/or notified. Manufacturers wishing to get to know new testing laboratories that are amongst the best in the world of thermal testing. All presentations will be given in English, no translation is foreseen. Registration is required.
