CATAS has obtained the renewal of the authorization as notified laboratory to carry out the tests required by the standards on CE marking of construction products.
The designation of CATAS as a body recognized by the EU for the assessment before placing on the market concerns the following products:
- wood flooring
- wood-based panels for use in construction
- suspended ceilings
- resilient, textile and laminate floorings
- surfaces for sports areas
- interior and exterior wall coverings with solid wood elements

following harmonized technical specifications:
