(Text with EEA relevance)

Article 37(3) of Regulation (EU) 2024/3110 establishes requirements for the content of the European technical assessment (‘ETA’).

ETA format should be adapted to present the relevant information in accordance with the elements provided in the applicable EAD. It should also be consistent with the guidelines to ensure interoperability of the human and machine-readable formats for the declaration of performance and conformity developed in accordance with Article 35(2) point (c) of Regulation (EU) 2024/3110. Those technical details should be set out in a general and a specific part of the ETA, with the general part covering identification and administrative information and the specific part covering technical information, in order to ensure a clear, structured and harmonised presentation of that information.












(3)


In order to protect confidential technical information on the product, the manufacturer should be able to indicate to the responsible technical assessment body which parts of the product description are confidential and are not be disclosed together with the ETA. Confidential information should be included in separate Annexes to the ETA.












(4)


The organisation for technical assessments established in accordance with Article 41(1) of Regulation (EU) 2024/3110 and the Construction Products Regulation (‘CPR’) Acquis Expert Group established by Article 4(1) of that Regulation have been consulted.












(5)


The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee on Construction Products established by Article 90 of Regulation (EU) 2024/3110,





HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:



Article 1
The format of the European technical assessment is set out in the Annex.


Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
