Thermal insulation products for buildings - Factory made wood wool (WW) products - Specification; German version EN 13168:2012
Wärmedämmstoffe für Gebäude - Werkmäßig hergestellte Produkte aus Holzwolle (WW) - Spezifikation; Deutsche Fassung EN 13168:2012
Overview
This European Standard specifies the requirements for factory made wood wool (WW) products, with or without facings or coatings, which are used for the thermal insulation of buildings. The products are manufactured in the form of boards or slabs. This European Standard also specifies the requirements for the factory made composite products, made from wood wool in combination with other insulation materials. This European Standard describes product characteristics and includes the test methods and specifications for evaluation of conformity, marking and labelling. Products described in this European Standard are also used in prefabricated thermal insulation systems and composite panels. The characteristics of systems incorporating these products are not covered. This standard does not specify the required level of a given property to be achieved by a product to demonstrate fitness for purpose in a particular application. The levels and classes required for a given application can be found in regulations or non-conflicting standards. Products with a declared thermal resistance lower than 0,15 m2×K/W or a declared thermal conductivity greater than 0,100 W/(m×K) at 10 °C are not covered by this standard. This European Standard does not cover in situ insulation products and products intended to be used for the insulation of building equipment and industrial installations. The committee responsible for this standard is NA 005-56-60 AA "Wärmedämmstoffe (SpA zu CEN/TC 88 und WG's, ISO/TC 61/SC 10, ISO/TC 163, ISO/TC 163/SC 1 und SC 3, ISO/TC 163/WG 5)" ("Thermal insulating materials (Mirror Committee of CEN/TC 88 and WGs, ISO/TC 61/SC 10, ISO/TC 163, ISO/TC 163/SC 1 and SC 3, ISO/TC 163/WG 5)") at DIN.
