This is a published authoritative document which compiles relevant code information into a comprehensive technical report to convey how a product(s) complies with recognized standards and requirements of building codes.

PERs can be acquired to prove to building officials that the certified product(s) contained within meet the relevant codes. The report can provide verification of product code compliance to audiences such as designers, specifiers, architects, engineers and contractors. PERs can be an asset for code officials to assist with decision making of product approval and/or systems. PERs identify the critical elements of the construction needed to meet the requirements of the code.

The development process of a PER includes utilizing a professionally licensed Intertek engineer who is separated from the product testing process. This separation ensures that the evaluation of the certification data is independent and impartial.

Listings and reports can be found by utilizing the Intertek directory at https://bpdirectory.intertek.com/pages/DLP_Search.aspx.

Evaluation reports are advisory in nature. An Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) has the final authority related to acceptance of the product(s).
