BS EN 15468:2016 PDF Download

A European standard known as BS EN 15468:2016 outlines the standards, demands, and testing procedures for laminate floor coverings with directly applied printing and resin surface layers. In order to help consumers make educated decisions, the standard contains a classification system based on EN ISO 10874 to show the practical requirements for areas of use and levels of use. Additionally, it details the laminate flooring's labeling and packing regulations.

Both household and commercial levels of use, such as those seen in home kitchens, are covered by this standard. It does not, however, address the needs for spaces like toilets, laundry rooms, or saunas that are frequently wet. The standard sets forth test procedures to determine whether laminate floor coverings comply with specific features and performance requirements. By adhering to this standard, laminate floor coverings are guaranteed to provide good service in the locations where they are intended to be used.
