Overview
EN 13170:2012+A1:2015 is the CEN European standard specifying requirements for factory-made expanded cork products (ICB) used as thermal insulation in buildings. It covers insulation cork boards manufactured from granulated cork agglomerated without additional binders, supplied as boards with or without facings or coatings. The standard defines product characteristics, test procedures, conformity assessment, marking and labelling, and includes normative annexes on declared thermal values, product-type determination and factory production control.
Note: EN 13170 does not set application-specific performance levels - required property levels are determined by regulations or other standards. Products with declared thermal resistance below 0.25 m2·K/W or declared thermal conductivity above 0.060 W/(m·K) at 10 °C are excluded.
Key Topics and Requirements
- Scope and definitions for insulation cork board (ICB) and related terms (granulated cork, cork protective layer).
- Product characteristics and tolerances: dimensional tolerances (length, width, thickness), density, compressive behaviour, tensile and bending strength, dimensional stability and water vapour properties.
- Thermal performance: procedures to determine declared thermal resistance and thermal conductivity (guarded hot plate, heat flow methods - EN 12667 / EN 12939).
- Testing references: harmonised test methods are referenced (EN 822–EN 13172, EN 13501-1 for reaction to fire, EN 13823, EN ISO 1182, acoustic and moisture tests).
- Assessment and Verification of Constancy of Performance (AVCP) and CE marking requirements per the Construction Products Regulation (see Annex ZA).
- Factory Production Control (FPC) and product-type determination (Annex B), multi-layer products (Annex C), moisture-related thermal conductivity (Annex D).
- Marking and labelling: required information for product identification and declared values.
