The British Board of Agrément is a partnering organisation  with Government and whose Governing Board includes representation on behalf of the Secretary of State for the Transport, Local Government and the Regions.


The BBA's Agrément Certificates have been providing authoritative and independent information on the performance of building products for over 30 years. Every Agrément Certificate contains important data on durability, installation and compliance with Building Regulations, not just in England and Wales, but in Scotland and Northern Ireland, too.
Assessment involves three distinct areas - laboratory testing (carried out wherever possible to UKAS requirements), site inspections, undertaken by the BBA's own Inspection Services team, and factory production control.


Visit the BBA web site for more information on Agrément Certificates.


The principal advantage in using mastic asphalt associated with an Agrément Certificate is that the product has actually been independently tested by the BBA to meet their rigorous standards in performance and durability. These tests are backed up by on-site inspections of the manufacturing plant.
