Hickey Fabrication gains CE EN1090 Certification

Posted on by Marc Daly

HFS Ltd has successfully achieved compliance with the requirements of CE Marking EN1090-1 for Structural Steel. CE Marking of structural steelwork has become a legal requirement in Ireland since 1st July 2014.

This achievement has come after a program of investment to produce an accredited Factory Production Control system which covers stock management, skilled personnel, fabrication equipment and workshop consumables, with continuous surveillance, inspection and testing of welds and welding personnel.

We can provide you with the following:

  • A Factory Production Control Certificate
  • A Welding Certificate
  • A Declaration of Performance. Clients or main contractors who engage a steelwork contractor should carry out due diligence and should only appoint a steelwork contractor certified with an Execution Class equal to that for the project.
