Glass in building - Basic soda lime silicate glass products - Part 8: Supplied and final cut sizes
This European Standard specifies dimensional and minimum quality requirements (in respect of optical and visual faults) for basic soda lime silicate glass products, as defined in EN 572 1:2012, for use in building. It applies to supplied sizes or cut sizes for final end use.
This European Standard does not apply to final cut sizes having a dimension less than 100 mm or a surface area less than 0,05 m².
This European Standard does not apply to float glass supplied as jumbo, split sizes or oversize plates nor to polished wired glass, drawn sheet glass, patterned glass, patterned wired glass supplied as stock sizes. For specifications regarding these types of glass, see EN 572 2:2012, EN 572 3:2012, EN 572 4:2012, EN 572 5:2012 and EN 572 6:2012 respectively.
This European Standard does not apply to final cut sizes of wired or unwired channel shaped glass For specifications on this type of glass, see EN 572 7:2012.

Overview
EN 572-8:2012/FprA1 - "Glass in building - Basic soda lime silicate glass products - Part 8: Supplied and final cut sizes" (CEN) specifies dimensional and minimum quality requirements for basic soda lime silicate glass intended for building use. The standard covers requirements for supplied sizes and final cut sizes, and addresses minimum acceptability in terms of optical and visual faults. The FprA1 draft amendment updates tolerances and nominal thickness limits for several product types.
Key topics and requirements
- Scope and applicability
- Applies to basic soda lime silicate glass products as defined in EN 572-1:2012.
- Covers both supplied sizes and final cut sizes for end use.
- Excludes final cut sizes with any linear dimension less than 100 mm or a surface area less than 0.05 m².
- Dimensional requirements
- Defines nominal sizes and thickness limits and tolerances for different product forms.
- Amendment FprA1 revises Table 2 to update tolerances for float glass, polished wired glass, patterned glass, and wired patterned glass.
- Quality (optical and visual faults)
- Specifies minimum quality levels in respect of visible and optical defects that affect suitability for building applications.
- Exclusions and cross-references
- Does not apply to float glass supplied as jumbo, split sizes or oversize plates, nor to some stock-supplied product types (polished wired, drawn sheet, patterned, patterned wired) - see EN 572-2 to EN 572-6.
- Does not apply to final cut sizes of wired or unwired channel-shaped glass - see EN 572-7.
Practical applications
- Ensures consistent dimensional quality and visual acceptability of glass used in windows, facades, balustrades, interior partitions and other architectural glazing.
- Guides fabricators and cutters on acceptable final cut tolerances and defect acceptability for building installation.
- Supports procurement specifications and conformity checks for supplied glass batches.
Who uses this standard
- Glass manufacturers and float-glass producers
- Glass processors, fabricators and cutting services
- Architects, façade engineers and specifiers
- Quality control and compliance officers, testing laboratories
- Product certification bodies and regulatory authorities
