CE & International Standards Guide

EN 14351-1 Compliance Matrix & Laboratory Testing Metrics

For architectural specifiers and import distributors, CE marking is not merely a label—it represents a mandatory Construction Products Regulation (EU No 305/2011) legal covenant backed by an accredited Declaration of Performance (DoP).

Performance Dimension Harmonized Standard DERCHI Test Performance Engineering Significance for Specifiers
Thermal Transmittance ($U_w$) EN ISO 10077-1 / EN ISO 10077-2 0.78 – 1.4 W/(m²·K) Calculated through finite element simulation. Enables Passivhaus and ultra-low energy compliance across EU zones.
Resistance to Wind Load EN 12210 / EN 12211 Class C5 / B5 (2000 Pa) Frontal deflection limited to less than 1/300 of the span at maximum hurricane pressures; prevents glass dislocation.
Watertightness Under Pressure EN 12208 (Static Pressure) Class E900 – E1200 Zero water leakage at driving air pressures exceeding 900 Pa to 1200 Pa, essential for coastal high-rise fenestration.
Air Permeability EN 12207 (Airtightness) Class 4 (600 Pa Max) Limits uncontrolled infiltration to < 3 m³/(h·m²), minimizing mechanical HVAC load and eliminating condensation cold bridges.
Acoustic Attenuation ($R_w / C; C_{tr}$) EN ISO 717-1 / EN ISO 10140-2 Up to 45 (-1; -4) dB Asymmetric laminate glass (e.g., 6mm Low-E + 16Ar + 4mm + 0.76PVB + 4mm) neutralizing low-frequency urban traffic noise.
Load-Bearing Capacity of Safety Devices EN 14608 / EN 14351-1 Clause 4.8 Threshold Passed (350 N) Ensures stays, hinges, and restrictors retain the sash securely during severe manual forced opening or extreme pressure shocks.
Dangerous Substances Release EN 14351-1 Clause 4.6 Compliant / Zero VOC Powder coatings and sealants verified free from lead, hexavalent chromium, and phthalates, fulfilling REACH chemical safety directives.
Accredited CE, AS2047 and ISO9001 test certificates
Certified Test Documentation

Every shipment is accompanied by batch-traceable raw material mill certificates, glass tempering stamps, and official CE DoP paperwork.

Dual Compliance: Harmonizing European CE with Oceanic AS 2047 Standards

Cross-continental developers frequently struggle with suppliers who fail to translate European certification into regional building approvals. DERCHI bridges this regulatory gap. For export markets in Australia, New Zealand, and the Pacific Rim, our window lines are independently tested to AS 2047 (Windows in Buildings) and AS 1288 (Glass in Buildings).

Our heavy-duty profiles have demonstrated structural deflection compliance under N6 cyclonic design wind pressures exceeding 4.5 kPa. This cross-standard qualification protects importers from catastrophic re-testing costs, onsite delays, or council building surveyor rejections.

Commercial Fenestration Intelligence

Frequently Asked Questions for Global Importers & Contractors

Clear, technically rigorous answers to common commercial, structural, and logistical questions encountered when sourcing aluminium windows from China.

What specific test documents and declarations are included in DERCHI’s CE compliance package?

Under European Union Construction Products Regulation (CPR 305/2011) and harmonized norm EN 14351-1, every export project is supplied with a comprehensive Technical Dossier. This includes the legal Declaration of Performance (DoP), identifying the product type, intended use, and designated performance metrics for air permeability, watertightness, wind resistance, and thermal transmittance ($U_w$).

Furthermore, we furnish Initial Type Testing (ITT) reports verified by accredited third-party notified bodies, Factory Production Control (FPC) audit documentation, and glass safety certificates fulfilling EN 12150 (thermally toughened safety glass) and EN 12600 (pendulum impact testing).

How does DERCHI verify thermal insulation calculations for Passivhaus and Low-E window projects?

Thermal transmittance is determined in strict accordance with EN ISO 10077-1 and EN ISO 10077-2 using specialized finite element two-dimensional heat flux analysis software (such as THERM and WINDOW). We evaluate profile frame thermal bridging ($U_f$), center-of-glass performance ($U_g$), and spacer bar linear thermal transmittance ($\Psi$).

For Passive House requirements, our Chambroad series incorporates 34mm multi-cavity polyamide PA66 GF25 thermal breaks with aero-gel insulation cores, paired with triple-glazed IGUs (4Low-E+16Ar+4Clear+16Ar+4Low-E) and Swisspacer Ultimate warm edge spacers, achieving an overall window rating of $U_w \le 0.8\text{ W/(m}^2\cdot\text{K)}$.

Can your engineering team calculate structural wind load resistance for high-rise or coastal installations?

Yes. Our in-house structural facade engineers execute structural member deflection calculations compliant with EN 1999 (Eurocode 9 for Aluminium Structures) and AS 1170.2 (Structural Design Actions - Wind Actions). We analyze moment of inertia ($I_{xx}$, $I_{yy}$) for mullions, transoms, and corner assemblies based on project elevation, terrain roughness category, and local design wind pressures (up to N6 / 4500 Pa).

When required, profiles are reinforced with internally concealed galvanized structural steel tubes or extruded exterior fins to ensure maximum frontal deflection remains within permissible architectural thresholds (typically $L/250$ or $L/300$, not exceeding 15mm).

What are the lead times, production capacities, and minimum order quantities (MOQ)?

With our 180,000 m² campus and 600+ personnel, DERCHI maintains an annual output capacity of over 300,000 square meters of high-end fenestration. Standard commercial production lead times range between 25 to 35 business days following final CAD shop drawing sign-off and material specification confirmation.

While we support large-scale full-container load (FCL) commercial developments, we have established flexible project provisions with an accessible MOQ of 50 square meters for bespoke architectural villas and boutique developments, supported by consolidated LCL marine shipping.

How does DERCHI prevent glass seal degradation and desiccant saturation during ocean transport?

Ocean freight exposes fenestration to severe relative humidity fluctuations and salt-fog corrosive atmospheres. We mitigate premature desiccant exhaustion through automated dual-seal IGU processing: an unbroken primary polyisobutylene (PIB) seal containing high-absorption 3A molecular sieve desiccant, protected by a minimum 4.5mm secondary structural silicone or polysulfide seal complying with EN 1279-2 and EN 1279-3.

Furthermore, shipping containers are equipped with industrial container-grade desiccant bags, and glass panes are isolated with non-marking cork spacer pads to prevent chemical glass leaching, surface haze, or static friction cracking during dynamic ocean transit.

What onsite technical support and post-sales guarantees are provided to overseas contractors?

DERCHI provides comprehensive remote and site-level technical integration. Every manufactured window panel bears a unique QR identification code linked to its CAD fabrication drawing, installation manual, and hardware maintenance schedule. Our bilingual facade engineers provide video installation briefings, fixing anchor layout guice, and perimeter EPDM flashing details.

Products are covered by a 10-year warranty on structural profile stability and thermal seals, a 10-year warranty on insulating glass units against hermetic failure, and a 5-year replacement guarantee on hardware mechanics, supported by rapid air-freight spare parts replacement.
