Manufacturers - are you using ETIM to show your compliance with UK Standards?

Manufacturers: Don't let your competitors lead the compliance conversation.

Your competitors are actively promoting their product compliance credentials to wholesalers.

If you’re not, you’re already behind.

Already, 15 ETIM Classes feature UK Specific Standards making it easier than ever for manufacturers to demonstrate compliance with regulations, such as British Standards or Building Regulations.

The table below shows the UK Specific Standards which are visible now in the EDATA data pool, because the ETIM standard is at the heart of EDATA.

ETIM's UK Specific Standards Fields are visible in the EDATA data pool - but more can be added

Manufacturers: if there are UK Specific Standards for your products which are not reflected in the current ETIM version please tell us.

ETIM 11.00 is due out later in 2026 and this is the perfect opportunity to secure the fields you need to demonstrate your compliance credentials but you need to act now.

Every EDA Wholesaler and Branch enjoys FREE access to the EDATA data pool and this type of information gives wholesalers a fast, reliable way to reassure contractor customers at the point of sale.

Act Now: Deadline for new UK Specific Standards for ETIM 11.00: Friday 29 May 2026
Manufacturers: Need new UK Specific Standard fields added to ETIM for your products?
