Which document you need and why

National declaration for listed building glass under headings 7003, 7004, 7005 and 7007; national certificate for insulating glass units under 7008 00, under Order No. 435 lists

The route follows the product description, intended use and relevant list entry, rather than the general word “glass”. A declaration for the glass sheets used in manufacture does not replace a certificate for the finished insulating unit; use in a fire-resistant barrier requires an additional review of requirements for that product. A certification body issues the certificate, while the applicant adopts the declaration; PLANCK helps prepare the documents and arrange the required checks.

What to send for a quotation

Start with these four items. If something is missing, send what you have and we will explain what else is needed.

01

Product name

Name, model, intended use and manufacturer.

02

HS / EAEU commodity code

Include the code if known. If not, we can help identify the product.

03

Technical description

Specifications, photographs, instructions or a product datasheet.

04

Composition and materials

Ingredients, materials or a component specification, depending on the product.

Provide pane thickness and dimensions, edge treatment, tempering or lamination and coatings; for insulating units, also provide layer configuration, cavity widths, gas fill, spacer, sealants and declared thermal performance.

Which requirements we check

  • Distinction between glass sheets and insulating units
  • Description and tariff-code match to the list
  • Dimensions, thickness and processing quality
  • Safe breakage where relevant to intended use
  • Unit sealing, durability and thermal performance
  • Marking, batch identification and manufacturer documentation

How the process works

  1. 01

    Product

    Review the description and identify the required document.

  2. 02

    Assessment

    Check the records and arrange any required testing.

  3. 03

    Documentation

    Support the documentation and registration procedure.

  4. 04

    Your document pack

    Deliver the completed documents and agreed work results.

What you receive

  • A certificate or registered declaration for the agreed products, where the selected procedure requires it and assessment is successful
  • A test report where testing is required by the procedure and included in the agreed work
  • Reviewed passport, instructions or label artwork within the agreed scope
  • An applicant’s file identifying products, conditions of use and any limitations found
