European foreword
This document (EN 1390:2020) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 38
“Durability of wood and wood-based products”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of
an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by October 2020, and conflicting national
standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by October 2020.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject
of patent rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This document supersedes EN 1390:2006.
Significant technical differences between this document and EN 1390:2006 are as follows:
a) introduction of a definition for moribund larvae;
b) because of the changes in a) verification of the conditions of recovered larvae becomes
needless and was deleted;
c) alternative coatings for sealing surfaces not to be treated may be used if they have no harmful
effect to the test insects and if their performance as sealants has been documented;
d) the following note was added to 8.8 “Examination of the test specimens”: It is useful to record
the location (distance from the nearest treated surface) of all larvae recovered because it
provides valuable information on penetration characteristic of the preservative.
NOTE Test results obtained according to earlier versions of this document and when the tests had
started before this version of EN 1390 was published are considered as valid.
According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the
following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria,
Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary,
Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland,
Portugal, Republic of North Macedonia, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden,
Switzerland, Turkey and the United Kingdom.
Introduction
This document describes a laboratory method of testing which gives a basis for the assessment of
the eradicant action of fast and slow acting wood preservatives and of deferred acting wood
preservatives against Hylotrupes bajulus. It allows determination of the lethal effect of a surface
application of a preservative product on a population of larvae previously introduced into the test
specimens.
The method simulates conditions in practice where a beam is treated, which is only slightly
attacked and where cutting away has not exposed insect tunnels. This represents a severe test of
the product.
In some particular instances, for example where the preservative is to be used on timbers of large
dimensions, laminated beams, blockboard, plywood and other panel products, other test methods
can be used to obtain complementary information on the effectiveness of the eradicant action of
a product. Such methods lie outside the scope of this document.
This laboratory method provides one criterion by which the value of a product can be assessed.
In making this assessment the methods by which the preservative may be applied should be taken
into account. It is further recommended that results from this test should be supplemented by
those from other appropriate tests, and above all by comparison with practical experience.
When products that are very active at low concentrations are used it is very important to take
suitable precautions to isolate and separate, as far as possible, operations involving chemical
products, other products, treated wood, laboratory apparatus and clothing. Suitable precautions
should include the use of separate rooms, areas within rooms, extraction facilities, conditioning
chambers and special training for personnel.
