2014 - CE Marking for One-Component Foam (OCF)under the Construction Products Regulation (CPR) - (Publ. ref. FAS-EX-D11-003)
For One-Component Foams neither European harmonised standard (hEN) nor a European Technical Approval (ETA2) exists and thus CE marking is not mandatory for any OCF product.
2014 - "Europe needs safe and innovative nanotechnologies and nanomaterials” is a joined publication of CEFIC, FEICA and several other industry associations.
The views are those of 15 European industry associations, including FEICA, with an interest in nanotechnologies and nanomaterials.
2014 - Model Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) - Q&A (Publ. ref. RAM-IN-D08-008)
FEICA is working to bring the German Model EPDs developed by the German adhesives, construction chemicals and paints sectors to the European level.
This article looks at how FEICA is dedicated to the acceptance of "Model Environmental Product Declarations” for the adhesives and sealants industry. The adoption of Model EPDs will potentially help adhesive and sealant companies achieve significant cost and time savings when creating EPDs for their products.
