Hispalyt appreciates the new technical building code (CTE)
01/01/2007
According to the Association of manufacturers of bricks and tiles from clay cooked (Hispalyt), the new text "confirms that the ceramic materials may continue to be used in the Spanish construction, as it has done so far, that they meet all the requirements of the final text".
This positive assessment has been possible because, first, the final text reflects the main suggestions that Hispalyt transmitted to the Ministry on the first draft and, secondly, because the investments made in recent years by manufacturers have made it possible to adapt their products to the requirements of the new regulations.
According to the Association "with the new rules imply a rotation of 180 degrees with respect to the applicable law, since it does not assess a direct materials used in the building, but the result of the constructive solutions applied on the basis of these materials".
