About the Standard
What is EN 10025-1?
EN 10025-1 is a European standard that sets the general technical rules for delivering hot-rolled structural steel products.It outlines the basic requirements that apply to all structural steel products, such as how they are made, checked, labeled, and documented, following the EN 10025 series.
This standard is used for structural steel in buildings, bridges, factories, infrastructure, and engineering projects.
It covers the general rules for steel types, their strength, chemical makeup, size accuracy, testing, and inspection, including Mill Test Certificates (MTC), as required by the specific product standard in the EN 10025 series.
EN 10025-1 is widely accepted by steel producers, fabricators, engineers, and construction companies in Europe and around the world.
Product certification offers an independent check that structural steel meets the required technical standards under the relevant EN 10025 product standard.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is EN 10025-1 certification?
EN 10025-1 certification demonstrates that applicable hot-rolled structural steel products meet the general technical delivery conditions specified by EN 10025-1. The standard covers requirements related to product quality, manufacturing, inspection, testing, documentation, and traceability.
What does EN 10025-1 cover?
EN 10025-1 specifies the general technical delivery conditions for hot-rolled structural steel products. It provides requirements that apply across the EN 10025 series, including aspects such as chemical composition, mechanical properties, inspection, testing, product identification, and delivery documentation.
Who needs EN 10025-1 certification?
EN 10025-1 certification is relevant to manufacturers of hot-rolled structural steel products and organizations supplying these products for construction, infrastructure, engineering, and other structural applications. The exact conformity assessment requirements depend on the product, intended use, and applicable regulatory framework.
What products are covered under EN 10025-1?
EN 10025-1 applies to hot-rolled structural steel products covered by the EN 10025 series. These can include structural plates, sections, bars, and other hot-rolled products manufactured for structural applications, subject to the applicable part of the EN 10025 series.
What are the requirements for EN 10025-1 certification?
EN 10025-1 certification may involve reviewing technical documentation, manufacturing processes, material traceability, inspection and testing procedures, product specifications, and quality-control records. Depending on the applicable conformity assessment procedure, factory production control and third-party assessment may also be required.
Is EN 10025-1 related to CE marking?
Yes. EN 10025-1 has provisions associated with CE marking for applicable hot-rolled structural steel products under the relevant European construction-product requirements. However, CE marking requirements depend on the applicable legislation, harmonized standard, product, and intended use. Manufacturers should establish the applicable conformity assessment route before placing a CE-marked product on the market.
What is the difference between EN 10025-1 and EN 1090?
EN 10025-1 specifies general technical delivery conditions for hot-rolled structural steel products, while EN 1090 addresses the execution and conformity of structural steel and aluminium components. Therefore, EN 10025-1 is primarily concerned with the steel product, whereas EN 1090 is relevant to manufactured structural components and their execution.
What documents are required for EN 10025-1 certification?
Depending on the certification and conformity assessment procedure, documentation may include product specifications, manufacturing-process information, quality-control procedures, inspection and test records, material certificates, traceability records, and relevant technical documentation. The certification body determines the specific documentation required for the applicable assessment.
What are the benefits of EN 10025-1 certification?
EN 10025-1 certification can help demonstrate conformity with applicable European technical requirements, improve confidence in structural steel quality, support material traceability, and facilitate acceptance of products in construction and engineering supply chains.
How can I obtain EN 10025-1 certification?
To obtain EN 10025-1 certification, a manufacturer should first identify the applicable product standard and conformity assessment requirements. The process generally involves an application, technical-document review, assessment of manufacturing and quality-control arrangements, inspection or testing where required, and certification after successful conformity assessment.
