M/139 - Addendum Construction
Addendum to mandates M/100, M/106, M/109, M/110 and M/125 in the field of construction products
Mandate M/139 is an addendum to previous mandates M/100, M/106, M/109, M/110, and M/125 concerning construction products. It addresses further standardisation needs in the construction sector, supplementing existing requests to the European Standardisation Organizations (ESOs) CEN, CENELEC, and ETSI. The mandate aims to ensure coherence and completeness in developing harmonised European standards for construction products, supporting regulatory frameworks and market integration. The resolution approving or disapproving this mandate is referenced as CEN/BT C004/2002.
Purpose
This mandate serves as an addendum to the existing mandates M/100, M/106, M/109, M/110, and M/125 related to construction products. Its purpose is to provide further directives or updates to enhance or complement the scope and activities originally outlined in these earlier mandates, facilitating continued development and harmonisation in the field of construction products within the European Union.
Standardisation request
The mandate requests standardisation bodies to update or supplement the work initiated under the referenced mandates. It aims to address any gaps or new requirements that have arisen in the field of construction products, thereby ensuring that standardisation efforts remain aligned with current market needs and regulatory frameworks.
Expected deliverables
The expected deliverables likely include revised or additional European standards (ENs) or technical specifications related to construction products. These deliverables should support product interoperability, safety, performance, and conformity assessment in line with EU legislation. The specific outputs would build upon the technical work already imposed by mandates M/100, M/106, M/109, M/110, and M/125.
Context
Mandate M/139 references previous mandates focused on standardising construction products, which are an essential component of the EU’s regulatory framework for the construction sector. The resolution reference CEN/BT C004/2002 indicates that this addendum was issued or approved by the CEN Management Centre’s Board of Directors in 2002, reflecting ongoing efforts to maintain the relevance and effectiveness of European standards for construction products in the internal market.
This mandate covers the standardisation work related to construction products. It serves as an addendum to previous mandates M/100, M/106, M/109, M/110, and M/125, focusing on harmonizing standards within the construction sector to support the conformity assessment and regulatory requirements for construction products in the European market.

Frequently Asked Questions
A European Standardization Mandate is a formal request from the European Commission to the European Standardization Organizations (CEN, CENELEC, and ETSI) to develop European standards (ENs) in support of EU legislation and policies. Mandates are issued under Regulation (EU) No 1025/2012 and help ensure that products and services meet the essential requirements set out in EU directives and regulations.
M/139 is a European Standardization Mandate titled "Addendum to mandates M/100, M/106, M/109, M/110 and M/125 in the field of construction products". Addendum to mandates M/100, M/106, M/109, M/110 and M/125 in the field of construction products There are 4 standards developed under this mandate.
Standards developed in response to a mandate and cited in the Official Journal of the European Union become "harmonized standards". Products manufactured in compliance with harmonized standards benefit from a presumption of conformity with the essential requirements of the corresponding EU directive or regulation, facilitating CE marking and market access across the European Economic Area.
