Overview
This European Standard specifies requirements for flat modular tiles of natural stone which are made for internal (including enclosed public transport premises) and/or external uses as floorings, stairs and wall and ceiling finishes. This European Standard does not cover mineral aggregates and artificial agglomerated stone material and does not cover installation. The document is a revision of DIN EN 12057:2005. The section on conformity assessment has mainly been amended. EN 12057 has been prepared in connection with the EU Construction Products Regulation. The product standard is intended for manufacturers and dealers of natural stone tiles as well as testing institutes. The joint committee responsible for this standard is NA 062-03-11 GA "Gemeinschaftsarbeitsausschuss NMP/NABau: Naturwerkstein; Anforderungen, Prüfverfahren und Terminologie" ("Joint Working Committee NMP/NABau: Natural stone; Requirements, test methods and terminology") at Standards Committee for Materials Testing (NMP) and Standards Committee Building and Civil Engineering (NABau) at DIN.
