Brooks Forgings ‘first’ in construction accreditations 31 August 2017

Brooks Forgings has announced that it is the first company to be issued with ISO 9001, EN1090 and EN15048 by Lloyd’s Register.

This is to comply with the Construction Products Regulation 305/2011. The combination of all three approvals means that Brooks Forging Ltd customers can purchase foundation bolting assemblies from one source with improved lead times and in full compliance with CE regulations. This, says Brooks Forging, gives it greater scope of coverage than most other companies supplying the construction and civil engineering sectors.
Compliance with EN1090-1 enables the company to fabricate outer assemblies and the recent addition of EN15048 enables the hot forging and machining of non-preloaded structural foundation bolts. This demonstrates, says Brooks Forging, that it has undergone a rigorous audit, where its capability to comply with the current best practices employed in the construction and civil engineering sector was reviewed in detail.
