System Acceptance

For builders working with systems

Builders and developers that wish to use MMC on a site covered by LABC Warranty should first consult the system acceptance register, below, in case the system has already been approved.

Your LABC Warranty application will also ask you if you’re using MMC on your project, and you will be asked to submit details on those system and their intended use while seeking a warranty.

For manufacturers of systems

Manufacturers that wish to have their systems approved by LABC Warranty for use on sites covered by our latent defects insurance are welcome to apply for approval from the System Acceptance team.

The system acceptance process

LABC Warranty’s System Acceptance process is comprehensive, investigating all aspects of a proposed system before it gains acceptance.

That includes the system’s design, manufacture, storage, transportation, erection, and more.

To be approved for use on an LABC Warranty site, a system will be tested against a variety of areas, such as:

Moisture resistance
Weather tightness
Structural capacity
Durability
Compliance with warranty standards
Factory quality certifications
Trade accreditations from manufacturers

What LABC Warranty approval really means

The LABC Warranty System Acceptance review is comprehensive and in-depth, but is not a third-party accreditation; system acceptance allows a system to be used on LABC Warranty sites under approved circumstances.

As stated above, this does not constitute 'approval' for any use outside of a site covered by LABC Warranty.
