Construction Products Regulation (CPR)

The Construction Products Regulation (CPR) lays down harmonised rules for the marketing of construction products in the EU.

CPR Overview
The Construction Products Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2024/3110) creates a single‑market framework for placing construction products, requiring one EU test when a harmonised standard is cited. It lowers costs, enables product comparison and supports national codes. In force since 7 January 2026.
CPR 2024 revision
EU Construction Products Regulation 2024 modernises rules for the green and digital transition, introducing sustainability data, a Digital Product Passport and updated standards. CPR-2011 and CPR-2024 will coexist until full repeal in 2039.
