Sika’s UK Roofing Division has successfully completed the renewal of four product sets under the Code for Construction Product Information (CCPI). Hotmelt Structural Waterproofing, Liquid Applied Roofing, Reinforced Bitumen Membrane, and Single Ply Roofing Systems were reassessed to confirm that Sika Roofing continues to meet the Code’s requirements for providing product information integrity.
In 2023, these Sika product systems became one of the first product sets in the UK to carry the CCPI mark, helping to provide greater confidence to specifiers and users that Sika’s product information is clear, accurate, accessible, up-to-date and unambiguous. The independent review examined how Sika’s product information is created, controlled, maintained and presented to their internal and external stakeholders. Documented processes for product information creation, applying clear and accurate wording, with full version control, and providing traceable evidence for performance data and certifications were just some of the criteria required to support the renewal.
The CCPI is an ongoing commitment to responsible communication. At Sika Roofing we have robust processes to ensure our product information is accurate, regularly reviewed, and accessible
Gavin White, Head of Product Management for Roofing commented: “The CCPI is an ongoing commitment to responsible communication. At Sika Roofing we have robust processes to ensure our product information is accurate, regularly reviewed, and accessible. This helps our customers and partners make informed decisions based on reliable data. The Code supports the industry’s move toward greater clarity and accountability, and we are pleased to continue meeting its requirements.”
The Code for Construction Product Information (CCPI) was created to promote an urgent and positive culture and behaviour change in the way the construction product manufacturing
industry manages and provides information and marketing on their products. The CCPI was initiated by the Construction Product Association (CPA) as a direct response to Dame Judith Hackitt’s review of Building Regulations and Fire Safety set up in the wake of the Grenfell Tower tragedy.
Sika Roofing’s compliance journey also involved a detailed review of leadership and culture, documented management systems, and independent verification against the Code’s principles and the principles of the Building Safety Act. This reflects Sika’s long-standing approach to transparency, traceability and actively participating in CCPI-registered product information for a more trustworthy and accountable landscape across the built environment.
