New rules. Clearer instructions.

Requirements for how manufacturers instruct installers and users are getting stricter for both water and machinery. A film makes your manual easier to follow, in every market and language.

WATER · SWEDEN · IN FORCE SINCE 1 JAN 2026

Säker Vatteninstallation 2026:1 (Swedish industry rules for water installations).

The rules apply in Sweden. They have been updated for wet rooms and kitchens, including stricter requirements in the kitchen and clearer rules for floor drains in some cases. The chain is building regulations, industry rules and then the manufacturer's installation instructions. That last link is the one we make clear.

MACHINERY · EU · IN FORCE FROM 20 JAN 2027

Machinery Regulation (EU) 2023/1230.

It applies across the EU, replaces the Machinery Directive and allows instructions for use to be supplied digitally. The buyer can still ask for them on paper. With digital instructions, a film can be one QR code away, in the right language.

The film does not replace your instructions for use.

It complements the written instructions and makes them easier to follow. The statutory instructions for use and product liability remain with you.
