Construction Fixings Association
The Construction Fixings Association is a trade association which comprises major manufacturers of construction fixings with a significant UK presence.
The Association endeavours to ensure that members observe a high level of integrity in all commercial activity and that all product information is provided in a clear useable form to specifiers and users.
The aims of the association are well summarised in the phrase “Ensuring Best Fixings Practice ”.
The CFA does this by:
- Publishing a series of free guidance notes
- Being directly involved in the development of the Guidelines for European Technical Approval of anchors for safety critical applications
- Being active in various BSI and European standards committees
- Being actively involved with other influential bodies such as BBA, CIRIA, BSRIA, CEN, ISO and government departments
- Supporting specific industries in the development of guidelines for their use of fixings
As a major manufacturer of construction fixings Spit joined the CFA as a member in 2007. We feel that by supporting specifiers and 'Ensuring Best Fixings Practice' the strategy and values of the CFA fit closely with our own. To find out more about the CFA visit www.fixingscfa.co.uk
