New Kitemark set to raise safety standards for balustrades

BSI (The British Standards Institution) has now created a Kitemark for balustrades. Thanks to the legwork Delta has invested in advance, it was Kitemark approved from the day it was launched; way ahead of the marketplace. From crash helmets to smoke alarms, the Kitemark is a quality certification recognised around the globe to underpin quality of manufacture and compliance in safety-related products.

Complying with the stringent accreditation process has not entailed any product modifications at Delta Balustrades because they have always been committed to the very highest standards of manufacturing and compliance. As a UK manufacturer Delta build quality assurance into their processes at every stage from design through to installation.

Delta are an ISO 9001 and Achilles accredited company and all their systems are fully compliant with all relevant BS standards and CE marked in line with CPD (Construction Products Directive) requirements.

Long before the Kitemark for balustrades was launched, Delta made sure they worked closely with BSI to understand and implement all the requirements, ensuring they were amongst the first recipients. Delta have successfully completed two BSI audits and have invested in independent load testing of all their systems to verify the design and manufacturing integrity of their product range.
