Laminate Floor Coverings - Determination of Impact Resistance with Small Ball
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 17368 standard focuses on testing laminate floor coverings for impact resistance using a tiny ball. Laminate flooring that complies with EN 13329, EN 14978, or EN 15468 is subject to this standard. The test is carried out on certain, appropriately sized laminate floor panel portions.
This standard's objective is to evaluate the laminate floor covering's surface resilience to impact. This assessment sheds light on the laminate floor covering's surface flexibility. The standard tries to mimic actual impact scenarios that the floor covering might encounter throughout its lifetime by employing a tiny ball tester.
The DIN EN 17368 impact resistance test is crucial for evaluating the performance and durability of laminate floor coverings. This standard may be relied upon by manufacturers and customers to guarantee that the goods satisfy the necessary quality requirements and can withstand a variety of impacts that may happen during regular use.
