# Construction Products Regulation (CPR)

**Reference:** Regulation (EU) 2024/3110 · **Status:** In force · **DPP applies:** Expected ≈2028 — 18 months after the system delegated act

> There is no blanket 2026 deadline. The DPP system must be operational 6 months after its delegated act enters into force, and obligations apply after 18 months.

The recast CPR introduces a construction-product DPP (Articles 75–80) carrying the declaration of performance and conformity, compatible with the ESPR passport and with Building Information Modelling (BIM).

**Scope:** Construction products covered by harmonised technical specifications under the CPR.

## Key dates

- **27 Nov 2024** — CPR adopted

- **7 Jan 2025** — Entry into force

- **8 Jan 2026** — General application begins

- **≈2028** — Construction DPP obligations (expected) _(expected)_

## How the trigger works

Article 75 requires a delegated act establishing the DPP system. Under Article 80 the system must be operational six months after that act enters into force, and mandatory passport obligations apply 18 months after entry into force.

## Built for BIM

The construction passport must be interoperable with BIM so information can flow into building models, logbooks and renovation passports.

## Passport information

- Declaration of performance and conformity

- General product information and unique identifier

- Instructions for use and safety information

- Technical documentation

- Economic operator identification

- Environmental sustainability information

## FAQ

### Is the construction DPP mandatory in 2026?

No. The CPR applies generally from January 2026, but DPP obligations only start 18 months after the system delegated act enters into force — expected around 2028.
