In order for construction projects be able to use the most advanced methods and materials, they must fulfil the official requirements of the applicable building regulations (Building Codes). The International Code Council Evaluation Service (ICC-ES) publishes so-called 'evaluation reports' in which materials, products and manufacturers are listed that correspond to these building codes.

The ESR-1539 Evaluation Report is provided in the U.S. by the ICC on behalf of the members of the ISANTA Association of Manufacturers. It includes performance descriptions for all fasteners which may be used for construction projects on the U.S. market.

Here at BECK, we attach great importance to the fact that products meet the requirements for construction licensing according ESR1539 and thus are suitable for use in construction projects. Extensive Internal and external testing is undertaken in order to ensure the conformity of our fasteners. In this way, we ensure maximum versatility and planning security for our customers.
