Resilient Floor Coverings - Specification for Cork Linoleum
Also Known As:
Cork linoleum, a type of resilient floor covering that is sold in roll form, is specified under the DIN EN 688 standard. The standard contains a classification system based on use intensity and attempts to educate consumers about the qualities and characteristics of cork linoleum. Customers can use this classification method to determine whether cork linoleum would work satisfactorily in various environments. The standard also specifies marking criteria to guarantee accurate product labeling.
It's vital to remember that "linoleum" is frequently used incorrectly to refer to various kinds of floor coverings, like those made of rubber or PVC. However, other materials that do not adhere to the established specifications are not covered by this regulation, which only pertains to cork linoleum. The DIN EN 688 standard aids consumers in selecting cork linoleum for their flooring needs by offering clear recommendations and categories.
