Reach high standards with RIDBA
The Rural and Industrial Design and Building Association (RIDBA) have outlined four key reasons why CE/UKCA marking is valued by our members, and why clients can have confidence in choosing a RIDBA member.
Levelling the playing field
RIDBA wants to ensure all companies in the sector can compete on equal footing. Large or small, steel frame manufacturers must meet the same standard – EN 1090-1. Having the CE/UKCA mark also ensures unscrupulous traders cannot undercut on price nor sacrifice safety.
A fully CE/UKCA compliant industry
RIDBA is raising the bar across the industry, supporting new members to achieve the CE/UKCA mark.
Client peace of mind
Clients, customers and specifiers can be confident that RIDBA frame manufacturers have all achieved the CE/UKCA mark, meet BS EN 1090 Parts 1 and 2, and designed to the latest design standards.
Consistent enforcement
Trading standards enforce CE/UKCA marking across the country. RIDBA’s primary authority agreement with trading standards ensures that enforcement of the CE/UKCA mark is consistent across the UK, and providing a simple way for companies to report.
A member can report a non-compliant manufacturer through RIDBA as part of our agreement with trading standards. To report a suspected case of non-compliance, email [email protected].
