Thermal insulation products for buildings - Factory made expanded polystyrene (EPS) products - Specification; German version EN 13163:2012+A2:2016

Title (German)

Wärmedämmstoffe für Gebäude - Werkmäßig hergestellte Produkte aus expandiertem Polystyrol (EPS) - Spezifikation; Deutsche Fassung EN 13163:2012+A2:2016

Overview

The European Standard EN 13163 specifies the requirements for factory made expanded polystyrene products, with or without rigid or flexible facings or coatings, which are used for the thermal insulation of buildings. The products are manufactured in the form of boards or rolls or other preformed ware (flat, tapered, tongue and grooves, shiplap, profiled, etcetera). Products described in this standard are also used for sound insulation and in prefabricated thermal insulation systems and composite panels. The performance of systems incorporating these products is not covered. This standard describes product characteristics and includes procedures for testing, evaluation of conformity, marking and labeling. This standard does not specify the required class or level of a given property to be achieved by a product to demonstrate fitness for purpose in a particular application. The classes and levels required for a given application are to be found in regulations or non-conflicting standards. Products with a declared thermal resistance lower than 0,25 m2×K/W or a declared thermal conductivity at 10 °C greater than 0,060 W/(m×K) are not covered by this standard. This standard does not cover in-situ insulation products (covered by EN 16025-1 and -2), products intended to be used for the insulation of building equipment and industrial installations (covered by EN 14309), products intended to be used in civil engineering applications (covered by EN 14933) and products intended to be used in beam and block systems in floors (covered by EN 15037-4).
