Welding Regulation – BS EN 1090
BS EN 1090 is a British Standard which covers constructional steel and aluminium. Since July 2014, products within the scope of this standard must be CE Marked when released to market. Lifting Gear Products produce steel and aluminium constructed products which we distribute in the UK and the wider EAA, so it is a legal requirement for our business to CE Mark the products we design and manufacture. This means that when a product is complete and delivered to one of our clients, it will be accompanied by a physical document, with the CE logo, this contains specific information relating to both the individual product, and Lifting Gear, as the manufacturer.
