NEWS | Industry-first BBA Certification Achieved for Welded Masonry Support System

IG Masonry Support is delighted to announce that our Welded Masonry Support (WMS) system is British Board of Agrément (BBA) certified, becoming the first masonry support manufacturer to receive this certification for a masonry support system. This important third-party endorsement of the product’s performance provides specifiers and contractors with added confidence that our WMS system has been rigorously tested to meet industry standards.

The British Board of Agrément is one of the UK’s leading notified bodies offering approval, certification, and test services to manufacturers of products and systems supplying the construction industry. BBA approval is recognised by building control, government departments, architects, local authorities, specifiers, and industry insurers like the National House Builders Council (NHBC).

Commenting on the BBA certification, Kyle Alexander, General Manager of IG Masonry Support, said: “We are thrilled to achieve this independent certification on our product, which is as important to us as a business as I believe it is for our customers.

“The certification provides that added re-assurance and confidence needed at a time with legislation changes such as Approved Document B and most recently the Building Safety Act. It makes us proud to know that IG Masonry Support continues to raise the bar and be at the forefront of positive change in our industry.”

We’re proud to add this latest BBA certification to our extensive portfolio, which already includes B.O.S.S., B.O.S.S. A1, Brick Slip Lintels, Brick Panel System – further strengthening our position as a leading supplier of masonry support systems. It reinforces our commitment to going above and beyond for its customers, providing peace of mind at every stage of a project.

This dedication lies at the heart of our Sleep Like A Baby campaign, which highlights our focus on Building Safety Act compliance, in-house manufacturing excellence, and the consistent delivery of fully accredited, industry-leading products.
