European foreword
This document (prEN 18088:2024) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 254 “Flexible
sheets for waterproofing”, the secretariat of which is held by NEN.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document has been prepared under a standardization request addressed to CEN by the European
Commission. The Standing Committee of the EFTA States subsequently approves these requests for its
Member States.
Introduction
This document is in accordance with the European Commission implementing decision M/584 on a
standardization request to the European Committee for Standardization and the European Committee
for Electrotechnical Standardization as regards plastics recycling and recycled plastics in support of the
European Strategy for Plastics in a Circular Economy.
A plastic waterproofing sheet is an article as identified in article 3 of Regulation (EU) N° 1907/2006
(REACH). It contains no substances which are intended to be released from the article under normal or
reasonably foreseeable conditions of use. Based on current knowledge, plastic waterproofing sheets do
not contain SVHC (Substances of very high concern) as listed in Annex XIV of the REACH regulation or on
the candidate list published by the European Chemicals Agency in concentrations above 0,1 % (w/w).
Under the umbrella from the European Union’s Waste Framework Directive 2008/98/EC recycling of
waste is one type of material recovery process intended to save resources (virgin raw materials, water,
and energy), while minimizing harmful emissions into air, water, and soil as well as any impacts on
human health. The environmental impact of recycling should be assessed over the whole life cycle of the
recycling process.
It might be impossible to trace back each individual product including components of the product at the
end user stage and to check whether the product has been used correctly through its life. It is possible
that during this period contamination with other materials might occur that could affect the product’s
suitability for recycling into the intended application.
1 Scope
Plastic waterproofing sheets generate plastic waste at different stages: production, construction process,
use and end of life.
This document defines the origin of recyclate made from pre-consumer material and post-consumer
material as it is used in new products. These new products can be plastic waterproofing sheets, other
sheets, other construction products or other products.
It specifies terms and definitions.
It gives guidance for assessing the recyclates intended for use in the production of new products.
NOTE This document is suitable for products with similar content like: swimming pool membranes,
