The British Standards Institution (BSI) is currently developing a new Publicly Available Specification (PAS) code of practice designed to support the safe introduction of construction products to the market.
The new standard – PAS 2000:2026, Construction products – Bringing safe products to market – Code of practice, aims to inform, complement, and align with the government’s forthcoming reforms to construction product regulation, following the recent Green Paper consultation.
This is an important opportunity for the finishes and interiors sector to help shape a standard that will directly impact how products are designed, assessed, and placed on the market.
The draft is now open for public consultation until 8 September 2025. We strongly encourage FIS members to review the standard and share feedback to ensure it reflects the needs and realities of our sector.
You can access the consultation via the BSI Standards Development Portal. Please note you will need to register for a free BSI account to download and comment on the draft.
If you would like to provide comments through FIS as part of a collective response, please get in touch with us by phone or email – we’d be happy to discuss your views.
