Overview

EN 12873-1:2014 is a CEN European standard that defines a laboratory test method to determine migration of substances from factory-made or factory-applied products that contact water intended for human consumption. It covers products made from or incorporating organic materials (plastics, rubber) and glassy materials (porcelain / vitreous enamel) used for the transport and storage of drinking water, including raw water used in water production. The standard specifies how to extract and analyse substances that may leach into water (migration), but does not itself set acceptance limits.

Key topics and technical requirements

  • Scope and applicability: Factory-made products, fittings, pipes, hoses, linings and other components in contact with drinking water.
  • Test conditions: Defined cold-water and elevated-temperature procedures (including specific temperatures and migration periods) to simulate real-use conditions.
  • Sample preparation: Rules for sampling, transport, storage and preparation of test pieces (homogeneous and non‑homogeneous products).
  • Surface area-to-volume (S/V) ratio: Determination and control of S/V for migration testing to standardize exposure.
  • Pre-treatment procedures: Flushing, prewashing and stagnation procedures before migration testing.
  • Migration water collection and analysis: Guidance on blank tests, analytical methods, calculation of substance concentrations and migration rates.
  • Documentation: Required content of the test report (test conditions, results, procedural details).
  • Annexes: Practical arrangements including flushing pipes > DN 80 (Annex A), testing of non-homogeneous products (Annex B), schedules for migration-water collection (Annex C), control procedures (Annex D), flow diagrams (Annex E) and a cell system for glassy materials (Annex F).
  • Normative references: Includes EN 15826 and relevant EN ISO analytical methods referenced for chlorine and enamel specimen preparation.

Applications

  • Evaluating leaching/migration from materials and components used in potable-water systems.
  • Supporting product development, material selection and design for water-contact applications (pipes, fittings, tanks, enamels).
  • Performing type-testing and quality control for manufacturers of plastics, rubber, porcelain/vitreous enamel components.
  • Supplying reproducible migration data for regulatory assessments, conformity testing and risk evaluation by water utilities and public health bodies.

Who should use this standard

  • Manufacturers of drinking-water components (pipes, fittings, linings)
  • Independent testing laboratories and quality control teams
  • Water utilities and asset owners assessing material compatibility
  • Certification bodies and regulators reviewing migration test evidence

Related standards

  • EN 12873 series (other parts): Part 2 (site-applied products), Part 3 (ion-exchange/absorbent resins), Part 4 (membrane systems)
  • EN 15826 (enamel terminology), EN ISO 7393-2 and EN ISO 28764 (analytical and specimen preparation methods)

Keywords: EN 12873-1:2014, migration testing, drinking water materials, porcelain, vitreous enamel, plastics, rubber, migration rate, surface area-to-volume.
