Evidence for the product you are specifying
Use the original report and an agreed inspection plan to connect a product claim to the material or assembly being supplied.
Start with document scope
Confirm the certificate holder, product or specimen, report number, method, date and scope. EN 13706 and ASTM D3917 are specification references, not proof of blanket certification. CE/UKCA documentation depends on the product, intended use and applicable assessment route.
A quality-management certificate describes a management-system scope; it does not establish the performance of every product. Request the current holder and scope for the proposed supply. Published technical references do not replace a project approval or a batch inspection report.
Four checks before a product claim goes into the order
Check 1
Define the offered product
Identify the drawing revision, resin, reinforcement, finish, tolerances, quantity and intended environment. A standard section name alone does not define its mechanical or fire performance.
Check 2
Agree the inspection plan
Specify dimensional and visual acceptance criteria, sampling, required mechanical tests and any witness inspection in the quotation or purchase specification. Confirm test frequency and reporting for the actual order.
Check 3
Match the evidence
Compare the offered material and assembly with the report holder, specimen geometry, conditioning, test method and results. Request the original document and any additional testing needed for a changed configuration.
Check 4
Define the release records
Agree the required batch identification, inspection report, packing record and document package before production. Confirm which records are included and which require additional testing or third-party inspection.
A dimensional inspection record you can specify
Download the blank first-article inspection template (CSV). It is an editable record structure, not a completed first article, test report or certificate. Keep requirements separate from actual values and approval when completing it for an identified sample.
| Record field | Information required | Order record |
|---|---|---|
| Part and drawing | Part number, drawing revision and units | Not entered |
| Material and traceability | Profile, resin / reinforcement reference and batch or sample identification | Not entered |
| Feature and requirement | Characteristic ID, nominal value, permitted variation and visual criteria | Not entered |
| Datum and setup | Reference face / axis, support condition and stage before or after edge treatment | Not entered |
| Method and sampling | Instrument / method, instrument identification and agreed sample quantity | Not entered |
| Result | Actual measured values with units, sample IDs and visual observations | Not entered |
| Disposition | Acceptance decision, deviation reference and authorized action | Not entered |
| Review and release | Inspector, date, reviewer and first-article or production-release reference | Not entered |
Keep the required tolerance, actual measurement and acceptance decision separate. An instrument's display resolution is not a machining tolerance. A first-article record describes the identified sample; production checks and any capability claim need their own agreed evidence.
Before changing the drawing, material, tooling or machining route, agree whether another sample, repeat inspection or further qualification is required. Link any approved deviation to the affected order and revision.
Use the FRP profile machining guide to define cutting, hole, slot, notch and edge-treatment requirements, then include the required records in the RFQ.

- E40 evidence — SGS full-section test, 40.8 GPa
SGS SHIN2608002943CM01_EN, issued 2026-09-07: full-section test to EN 13706-2 Annex D, 40.8 GPa average from three specimens. Page 1 specification 60605; page 3 specimen 2160 × 90 × 90 mm. These size identifiers need clarification before size-specific qualification. Results apply only to the tested samples; conclusion N/A, with an internal-reference use note. Supports the reported 40 GPa-class result, not EN 13706 E40 certification or a design allowable.

- 90-series GFRP window component certificate
PHI 2491wi03 names Chongqing Xianju New Material Co., Ltd. and Fengdu Passive GFRP 90 Series. The stated configuration is cool-temperate, efficiency class phB, Uw 0.78 W/(m²·K) with Ug 0.70; valid until 31 December 2026. It is not Arctic-climate, PHIUS or blanket F1-window certification. Confirm the original and proposed configuration.
- Turn-and-tilt GFRP window test report
AS 2047 testing of the identified window specimen. Match dimensions, glazing, hardware, pressure and test conditions before using the results.
- Lift-sliding GFRP door test report
Historical 140 Series Lift-Sliding Door specimen, 3000 × 2400 mm, as named in Intertek 240821010SHF-002. The original report is preserved. It does not automatically cover the current 140 Series Compression-Seal Sliding Door; configuration equivalence requires technical verification.
- FRP profile design manual
Revision B (October 2026), generated from the website's catalog, laminate and design-basis data: EN 13706 E23 laminate values beside the grade minimums, section properties of all 114 catalog sizes, allowable uniform loads to the published LRFD screening basis, application guides, durability stated by resin formulation, fabrication and inspection. A preliminary-sizing reference, not a project approval or batch certificate; it supersedes the withdrawn Rev. A.
- PU-GF pultruded profile mechanical data
The material system and methods identified in the sheet. Confirm whether each value is typical, measured or a design value before applying it to another laminate or section.
- Wind-energy pultruded laminate data
The tested laminate and reinforcement described in the document. Fatigue and fiber-content results apply to the stated specimens, not all blade or spar-cap designs.
