What are the advantages of the COPRO label for construction professionals?
In the construction industry the COPRO label is an important link in the general quality assurance. Thanks to the COPRO label:
- the project owner has a quality guarantee for the products, processes or services used, on the basis of which he can dispense with a prior inspection;
- the designer and the architect can concentrate on their task and on the quality of the construction work;
- the contractor has an additional guarantee that he is working with quality products;
- the supplier enjoys the necessary confidence of the user in the delivered products, processes or services.
Added value
The COPRO label allows the user to have confidence in the conformity of the product, the process or the service. The COPRO certification guarantees an effective supervision by an independent party in all cases. This supervision relates to the measures which the supplier with the licence to use the COPRO label takes within the framework of his self-monitoring in order to guarantee conformity.
COPRO certification meets the expectations of the users and contributes to consumer protection by supervising the self-monitoring of the supplier.
The COPRO certification serves the general interest by promoting the rules of the art in various industrial sectors and thus contributes to technical and economic progress.
COPRO certification also offers the possibility to safeguard various aspects of public safety, health and the interests of the end users.
