This document specifies the requirements for factory made mineral wool products, with or
without facings, which are used for the thermal insulation of buildings. The products are
manufactured in the form of rolls, batts, boards or slabs.
This Standard describes product characteristics are includes procedures for testing,
evaluation of conformity, marking and labeling.
Products covered by this standard are also used in prefabricated thermal insulation systems
and composite panels; the performance of systems incorporating these products is not
covered.
This standard does not specify the required level of a given property to be achieved by a
product to demonstrate fitness for purpose in a particular application. The levels required for
a given application are to be found in regulations or non-conflicting standards.
Products with a declared thermal resistance lower than 0.6 m2⋅K/W or a declared thermal
conductivity greater than 0.050 W/(m⋅K) at 20 °C are not covered by this standard.
This standard does not cover in situ insulation products and products intended to be used for
the insulation of industrial installations.
