Tenmat Cavity Barriers Are CCPI Verified

Tenmat Cavity Fire Barriers have achieved a significant milestone by being the first of their kind in the UK to obtain the CCPI mark. This certification assures users that our product information is clear, precise, readily available, current, and straightforward.

The CCPI Verification

During a recent event in London organised by the CCPI, Tenmat joined other forward-thinking manufacturers dedicated to enhancing building safety through best practices in the provision of construction product information and claims verification.

Tenmat Cavity Barriers have become one of the first passive fire protection product groups in the UK construction sector to be confirmed as compliant with the CCPI standards. The CCPI has been crucial in elevating product information standards as the construction industry moves towards an enhanced building safety framework. We are committed to actively cooperating with the CCPI to improve our product information management.

Understanding the CCPI

The Code for Construction Product Information (CCPI) was developed to ensure reliability in product information, whether it appears in brochures, presentations, or online platforms, assisting specifiers and consumers in making informed decisions.

The CCPI emerged in response to Dame Judith Hackett’s ‘Building a Safer Future Review’ following the Grenfell Tower tragedy. Its goal is to foster trust, credibility, and integrity in the verified data about construction product performance.

The CCPI Verification Process?

Tenmat underwent a comprehensive five-step verification process to earn CCPI certification for our cavity barrier range, which included:

Leadership & Culture survey
Management Systems Questionnaire
Organisation Assessment
Product Set Submission
Product Set Verification

Tenmat Passive Fire Protection

“We are so proud to have been one of the first eight companies to have a Product Set verified by CCPI and allocated the CCPI Mark. Our range of Cavity Barriers was also the first fire protection related Product Set and given the well-known background to why CCPI was created, it is a great testimony to the whole team at Tenmat that we are at the forefront of driving up standards on product information.

It was also so positive to see many other manufacturers working towards verification and we strongly believe this is an important and positive step for the whole construction industry.”
