The British Board of Agr\u00e9ment<\/a>, the construction products certification body, has opened an office in Dublin (BBA EU), allowing it to explore new avenues for growth outside the UK<\/h2>\n

The BBA EU move is also intended to reassure clients in the UK and Europe of the BBA\u2019s commitment to maintaining a normal trading position post-Brexit<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Construction product certification specialist Oriola Davies, a qualified mechanical engineer who has worked for the BBA for more than a decade, has relocated from the BBA\u2019s headquarters in Watford, Hertfordshire, to Dublin to help establish BBA EU. She is an active member of the European Organisation for Technical Approvals (EOTA)\/External Thermal Composite Insulation Systems (ETICS) working group.<\/p>\n

Richard Beale, BBA Commercial Director, said the move was an \u201cimportant step\u201d in enabling the organisation to continue providing product certification and Agr\u00e9ment Certificates for European clients and customers in Ireland.<\/p>\n

Beale said: \u201cWe will continue to deliver the service they need and expect whether they be manufacturers, installers or distributors of construction products.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn addition, we are completing the process of achieving Notified Body status for the Ireland office which will allow us to undertake Assessment and Verification of Consistency of Performance (AVCP).<\/p>\n

\u201cWe look forward to building on existing successes as well as embracing new challenges as we step into a new era for our business.\u201d<\/p>\n
