General Information
CEN Technical Report 15855 examined the concept and realities of barriers to trade in construction products within the European Union insofar as the products were affected by regulations relating to Essential Requirement 3 (ER3) of the Construction Products Directive (89/106/EEC). Within the body of CEN/TR 15855, the topic of barriers to use was investigated briefly and it was concluded that these could be at least as significant as technical barriers to trade. The European Commission, in noting these findings, asked that the report be extended to further examine the reasons for and scope of barriers to use of construction products in the European Union (insofar as they related to ER3) of the Construction Products Directive (CPD). This report further examines the types of barriers and the fundamental reasons behind their creation and continued existence, such as the laudable aim to protect health.

This TR is an extension to CEN/TR 15855:2009. This original report on Barriers to Trade, prepared in response to Mandate M/366 given to CEN/TC 351 by the European Commission, identified that some of these barriers were truly technical or legal barriers to trade which can usually be overcome or minimised by technical harmonisation work, but others were quite legally in place, sometimes voluntary, but were nonetheless still seen as a barrier to the use of certain products in a free market place. This report is an examination of these concepts in more detail and an attempt to identify the reasons behind the presence of barriers to use and to present specific examples in more detail.
