De BRL SI 2110-55 voor Mineraal Schuim is officieel vastgesteld en gepubliceerd.
Een belangrijke stap voor de sector: van “goed uitvoeren” naar aantoonbaar gecontroleerd en gecertificeerd werken.

Waarom dit ertoe doet?
In een markt waar kwaliteit steeds vaker bewezen moet worden, maakt certificering het verschil. Niet op papier, maar in de praktijk.

Met certificering via SKG-IKOB Certificatie B.V.-kies je voor:
✔ Onafhankelijke en aantoonbare kwaliteitsborging
✔ Vertrouwen bij opdrachtgevers en ketenpartners
✔ Heldere richtlijnen voor uitvoering en controle
✔ Grip op je processen en continue verbetering
✔ Een sterke, onderscheidende positie in de markt
✔ Aansluiting op actuele wet- en regelgeving (o.a. Wkb)

Gecertificeerd uitvoeren betekent: geen discussie achteraf, maar zekerheid.

Werk je met mineraal schuim en wil je die stap maken? Dan is dit het moment om aan te haken.

SKG-IKOB Certification is aware of the recent reports regarding the use of UF foam (urea-formaldehyde foam) and of the Zembla broadcast.

We endorse the statement issued by VENIN Isolerend Nederland.

The Municipal Health Service (GGD) is currently conducting a supplementary investigation into the use of UF foam as an insulation material. Naturally, we will cooperate fully with this investigation if requested to do so.

First SKG-IKOB Sustainability Passports for Civil Engineering Awarded: A Major Step Toward a Transparent and Future-Proof Infrastructure Sector

Geldermalsen, February 26, 2026 – The civil engineering sector reached an important milestone this week. SKG‑IKOB Certificatie B.V. and Building Changes have officially issued the very first SKG-IKOB Civil Engineering Sustainability Passports. With this new standard, the sustainability performance of companies in the civil engineering sector becomes demonstrable, comparable, and reliable.

Metal roofing and siding require true craftsmanship. The installation of zinc, copper, and lead roof, facade, and gutter systems is specialized work that places high demands on quality, safety, and durability. To demonstrate this quality, there is the BRL 5212 assessment guideline, the KOMO process certificate for the installation of metal roof, facade, and gutter systems.
SKG-IKOB is the independent certification body that assesses and certifies this process.

The European standard NEN-EN 1300 plays a key role in the certification of security locks for safes. SKG-IKOB recently achieved a first: the first Grade B test under this standard.

The draft version of the newly developed BRL 2702-00 and the associated BRL 2702-01 “Installation of metal facade elements” for the process certificate has been published for review/comment.

The period runs up to and including 27 January 2026. Any comments can be submitted by email on the criticism sheet available for download below.

SKG-IKOB Certification issues first certificate for 'Quality Assurance by the Builder'

Construction company Vrolijk from Breda is the first contractor in the Netherlands to be certified according to the Recognition Guideline ERL 5029: Quality Assurance by the Builder . This certification, developed by SKG-IKOB Certificatie, aligns with the requirements of the Quality Assurance in Construction Act (Wkb) and confirms that Vrolijk possesses a demonstrably functioning quality system with which risks in the construction process are managed.

Realistic field testing of (post-)insulation materials possible in innovative test chamber

Geldermalsen, September 25, 2025 – The performance of (re-)insulation materials for walls, floors, and roofs can now be realistically tested thanks to the innovative insulation test chamber opened this month by the Dutch certification body SKG-IKOB. Previously, insulation materials could only be tested to a limited extent, and only the theoretical insulation value was determined.

The draft version of BRL 1004-1 "Sand-lime brick" for the Soil Quality Decree product certificate has been published for criticism.

The BRL has been adapted to the new Soil Quality Decree Regulation 2022 (Rbk 2022)

As of June 1, 2025, NEN (scheme manager of the Safety Culture Ladder) introduces renewed and accessible products that support organizations in an even more effective way to improve their safety and health culture. This innovation makes the Safety Culture Ladder more applicable to small organizations.

Get your company certified for the BRL 5110 for conducting bat research based
of eDNA method in accordance with BRL IC-200. As a certified company, you may conduct DNA trace research
and, based on the results of the DNA trace research, it is determined whether a property may be isolated without
mitigation measures.

The draft version of BRL 5110 "KOMO process certificate for carrying out bat research based on eDNA method" has been published for criticism.

The draft version of BRL 1332-02 "KOMO process certificate for sprayed PUR foam as thermal insulation of sloping roofs" and BRL 1363"komo process certificate for in-situ application of bio-based insulation systems for thermal insulation of sloping roofs" have been published for critique.

The construction industry faces the challenge of drastically reducing_{CO2 emissions}. Concrete, a widely used construction material, contributes significantly to these emissions through the use of cement.

SKG-IKOB has approved and published the Assessment Guideline (BRL) 2114. This guideline assesses the installation and performance of reflective insulation products for floors, facades and pitched roofs. With this, SKG-IKOB offers the construction industry a uniform way to determine the quality and effectiveness of these products.
