Cement Certification:
Cement sales in Europe are regulated by the Construction Products Directive, which involves CE
marking of this product. In Jordan, the EN 179-1 (JS 30) is enforced as a Technical Regulation.
Cement requires numerous quality control checks to be performed during the course of
construction. In order to contribute to maintain and improve the quality level in the building sector,
CQIC has developed an important third party certification activity of construction materials.
As accredited certification body we run the voluntary conformity mark CQIC for Cement. Cement manufacturers
may apply for CQIC cement certification to comply with all the regulations, ensure the suitability of
cement and exempt its clients from performing additional controls during work.
Advantages:
• Facilitation of international trade, mutual recognition and acceptance,
