Resilient floor coverings - Specification for plain and decorative linoleum
This document specifies the characteristics of plain and decorative linoleum, supplied as either tiles or rolls.
To encourage the consumer to make an informed choice, the document includes a classification system based on intensity of use, which shows where resilient floor coverings should give satisfactory service (see EN 685). It also includes requirements for marking.
The term 'linoleum' is frequently incorrectly applied to a range of floor coverings, often to those based on polyvinyl chloride or rubber. Such materials are not included in this document.

Dieses Dokument legt die Eigenschaften von ungemustertem und gemustertem Linoleum fest, das entweder in Form von Platten oder auch als Rollen geliefert wird.
Um den Verbraucher bei seiner Auswahl zu unterstützen, enthält dieses Dokument ein Klassifizierungssystem (siehe EN 685) auf Basis der Nutzungsintensität, das zeigt, wo für diese Bodenbeläge ein zufriedenstellender Nutzen möglich wäre. Die Norm legt auch die Bedingungen zur Kennzeichnung fest.
Der Begriff "Linoleum" wird häufig fälschlicherweise auch für andere Bodenbeläge, oft für solche auf Basis von Polyvinylchlorid oder Elastomeren, verwendet. Derartige Materialien sind nicht in dieses Dokument eingeschlossen.
