Thermal insulation products for buildings - In-situ formed loose fill cellulose (LFCI) products - Part 1: Specification for the products before installation
This European Standard specifies requirements for loose-fill cellulose insulation (LFCI) products for the thermal and/or sound insulation of buildings when installed into walls, floors, galleries, roofs and ceilings.
This Part 1 of the standard is a specification for the loose-fill cellulose insulation (LFCI) products before installation.
Part 1 of this European Standard describes the product characteristics and includes procedures for testing, marking and labelling and the rules for evaluation of conformity.
Products covered by this standard may also be used in prefabricated thermal insulation systems and composite panels; the structural performance of systems incorporating these products is not covered.
Products with a declared thermal conductivity at 10 °C greater than 0,060 W/(m x K) or a declared thermal resistance lower than 0,25 m2 x K/W are not covered by this standard.
This European Standard does not specify the required level of all properties to be achieved by a product to demonstrate fitness for purpose in a particular application. The required levels are to be found in local regulations or non-conflicting standards.
This European Standard does not cover factory made cellulose products placed on the market as bats, mats or boards intended to be used for the insulation of buildings or loose-fill cellulose products for the insulation of building equipment and industrial installations.
Wärmedämmstoffe für Gebäude - An der Verwendungsstelle hergestellte Wärmedämmung aus Zellulosefüllstoff - Teil 1: Spezifikation für die Produkte vor dem Einbau
Diese Europäische Norm legt Anforderungen für Produkte aus loser Zellulosedämmung (LFCI, en: Loose-Fill
Cellulose Insulation) fest, die als Wärme- und/oder Schalldämmung von Gebäuden in Wände, Fußböden,
Galerien, Dächer und Decken eingebaut werden.
Teil 1 dieser Norm ist eine Spezifikation für Produkte aus loser Zellulosedämmung (LFCI) vor dem Einbau.
Teil 1 dieser Europäischen Norm beschreibt die Produkteigenschaften und enthält Verfahren für die Prüfung,
Kennzeichnung und Etikettierung sowie Vorschriften für die Konformitätsbewertung.
Die von dieser Norm abgedeckten Produkte dürfen auch in vorgefertigten Wärmedämmsystemen und Mehrschicht-
Verbundplatten verwendet werden; das Tragverhalten von Systemen, in die diese Produkte eingebaut
sind, wird jedoch nicht behandelt.
Produkte mit einem Nennwert der Wärmeleitfähigkeit bei 10 °C von mehr als 0,060 W/(m ⋅ K) oder einem
Nennwert des Wärmedurchlasswiderstandes von weniger als 0,25 m2 ⋅ K/W sind nicht Gegenstand dieser
Norm.
Diese Europäische Norm legt keine erforderlichen Leistungsstufen für alle Eigenschaften fest, die ein Produkt
erreichen sollte, um die Gebrauchstauglichkeit für eine bestimmte Anwendung nachzuweisen. Die
erforderlichen Stufen können Regelwerken oder nicht entgegenstehenden Normen entnommen werden.
Diese Europäische Norm gilt weder für werkseitig hergestellte Zelluloseprodukte für die Wärmedämmung von
Gebäuden, die in Form von Matten oder Platten verkauft werden, noch für lose Zelluloseprodukte für die
Wärmedämmung von haus- und betriebstechnischen Anlagen.

avant la mise en place.
La partie 1 de la présente Norme européenne décrit les caractéristiques des produits et inclut les modes
opératoires pour les essais, le marquage et l'étiquetage, ainsi que les règles à respecter pour l'évaluation de
la conformité.
Les produits concernés par la présente norme peuvent également être utilisés en systèmes préfabriqués
d’isolation thermique et panneaux composites ; la performance structurelle des systèmes incorporant ces
produits n’est pas couverte.
Les produits dont la conductivité thermique déclarée à 10 °C est supérieure à 0,060 W/(m × K) ou dont la
résistance thermique déclarée est inférieure à 0,25 m2 × K/W ne sont pas couverts par la présente norme.
La présente Norme européenne ne spécifie pas le niveau requis de toutes les propriétés que doit acquérir un
produit pour démontrer son aptitude à l’emploi pour une application particulière. Les niveaux requis figurent
dans les réglementations locales ou les normes qui ne sont pas en contradiction.
La présente Norme européenne ne couvre pas les produits cellulosiques fabriqués en usine et mis sur le
marché sous forme de nattes, de matelas ou de panneaux destinés à être utilisés pour l’isolation de bâtiments
ou les produits cellulosiques en vrac destinés à l’isolation des équipements du bâtiment et des installations
industrielles.
