BS EN 16025-1:2013

This standard BS EN 16025-1:2013 Thermal and/or sound insulating products in building construction. Bound EPS ballastings is classified in these ICS categories:

• 91.100.60 Thermal and sound insulating materials

This European Standard specifies the requirements for in-situ formed bound EPS products (BEPS) for the thermal and/or sound insulation of buildings when applied to walls, ceilings, roofs and floors.

This European Standard covers products which are manufactured as premixed EPS dry plaster/mortar in a factory or mobile production unit.

This European Standard is a specification for the bound EPS products before installation.

This European Standard describes the product characteristics and includes procedures for testing, marking and labelling and the rules for evaluation of conformity.

This European 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 conductivity at 10 °C greater than 0,18 W/(m . K) are not covered by this European Standard.

This European Standard does not cover factory made insulation products in the form of prefabricated shapes or boards made of bound EPS.

This European Standard also specifies performance requirements for airborne sound insulation and for acoustic absorption applications.
