BENOR
BCCA npo manages the BENOR label for clay products, glazing products, roofing products, fibre cement products, natural stone for buildings, concrete repair and protection, and plastic pipe products and systems.
What is the BENOR label?
The BENOR label is a voluntary quality label, propriety of the Belgian Bureau for Standardisation NBN and managed by BENOR npo.
- Voluntary - because it is backed by the market itself and is not imposed by law.
- Quality label - because it indicates that a product, process or service meets well-defined quality requirements.
- The BENOR label is applied when parties mutually agree to it voluntarily
BCCA npo as sectoral organisation for BENOR
By its appointment as Sectoral Organisation, BCCA npo organises the Sectoral Commissions for different sectors. All stakeholders are represented in these committees and collectively they determine together the rules for a BENOR certification scheme through consensus. These rules are then published as Implementation Rules (TRA). When standards are absent or insufficient, a Sectoral Committee may also draw up a Technical Specification document (PTV).
New documents are approved via an internal procedure and after public consultation via this website.
