EN 1090

EN 1090 is the European standard that regulates the fabrication and assembly of steel and aluminium structures.  It is mandatory for manufacturers supplying structural components to the European Union, as it forms the basis for CE marking under the Construction Products Regulation (CPR). 

EN 1090 ensures that structural components are designed, fabricated, inspected, and controlled to meet defined quality, safety, and performance requirements.

EN 1090 is applicable to organisations involved in the manufacture and supply of structural components. Any organizations exporting steel or aluminium structures to the EU must comply with EN 1090.

Implementing EN 1090 delivers both compliance and commercial benefits:

• Mandatory compliance for CE marking in the EU
• Access to European construction and infrastructure markets
• Improved quality control and fabrication consistency
• Reduced rework, defects, and project risks
• Enhanced credibility with clients, regulators, and contractors
• Stronger control over welding and fabrication processes
• Alignment with international quality and safety expectations
