Specifying Toilets for an EU Project: A Buyer’s Checklist

In the EU the document is the deliverable: a Declaration of Performance drawn up per model against EN 997. These are the decisions that keep it valid.

On a European project the specification is not the hard part — the bowl is a bowl. What decides whether the delivery is accepted is the paperwork that travels with it, and that paperwork is written per model, against a standard, by a named party. Work in this order and the documents follow without argument.

The declaration comes before the specification

Decide whose name stands on it

Keep the range boundary straight

Then the plumbing detail

A first order that de-risks itself

Send the model codes, the quantities, the destination country and the flush or finish requirements, and we will confirm which documents cover each model — and say plainly when one is not available yet — before you commit to samples.
