DIN Standards Committee Paper, board and pulps

Overview

This part of ISO 12625 specifies a test method for the determination of grammage of tissue paper and tissue products. The grammage can be determined by calculating the mass of a sample or samples of tissue paper or tissue products that have been cut to specified dimensions or by determining the mass and area of a specified number of packaging units of finished tissue products. This document has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 172 "Pulp, paper and board" in collaboration with Technical Committee ISO/TC 6 "Paper, board and pulps". The secretariat of CEN/TC 172 is provided by DIN Standards Committee Paper, board and pulps (NPa). The decisive committee within CEN/TC 172 is WG 8 "Specification for test methods for soft tissue paper", which is chaired by Germany. Representatives of the Standards Committee "Paper, board and pulps" participated in the preparation of this document. The national mirror committee here is NA 074-02-05 AA "Prüfverfahren für Tissue-Papier und Tissue-Produkte" ("Test methods for tissue paper and tissue products").
