Building Product Information Sheets (BPIS)

The Building Amendment Act 2021 introduced new minimum information requirements for building products, to support better informed decision-making by building consent authorities, building owners, builders and designers.

The regulations only apply to building products that, when used in building work, may affect whether the building work complies with the Building Code.

Stratmore Construction Solutions manufactures or imports some products that the Building Amendment Act 2021 applies to. These products all fall under the Class 1 Designation as defined below:

Class 1

A class 1 designated building product is a building product that:

  • is mass-produced or produced in batches to a general specification; and

  • is available for wholesale or retail purchase; and

  • is new

Building Code compliance to council as part of the consent application

  • when it is used in building work, it may affect whether the building work complies with the Building Code;

and

  • if there is a possibility that a particular Building Code clause or subclause obligation will be triggered by the use of the product, then this criteria is met.

Stratmore Construction Solutions has determined which products it manufactures or imports that, when used in building work, may affect whether the building work complies with the Building Code.
