Hi,

Silly question - if all the materials needed to create a composite (resins, glass-fibers) have EN 45545-2 approvals individually, does the combination (end product) need to be tested? Looking to save the money, of course...
What we have in question is a GRP-composite part. I don't have access to the standard at the moment.

Thanks!
