For pile rugs and runners classified as class 23, SPDC (g/cm3) shall be minimum 0,12 and SPW (g/m2) shall be minimum 1 500 g/m2. Annex A defines the method to determine the calculated surface pile density. The change in appearance is determined in accordance with ISO 10361 in either the Hexapod or the Vettermann apparatus using the number of cycles for long term tests. The tested specimens shall be assessed in accordance with EN ISO 9405 and the median grade for overall change in appearance shall meet the requirements specified in Table 3. SIST EN 14215:2018

polyester 1,38
polypropylene 0,91
silk 1,25
viscose 1,52
wool 1,32 In the case of fibre blends, the minimum requirements are calculated on a pro-rata basis according to the fibre blend. SIST EN 14215:2018

Criteria for the assessment of stair suitability This annex shall be used only for runners that are intended to be installed without the use of protective stair nosing. For runners that are intended to be installed using protective stair nosing, the overall use class shall determine the stair suitability. For loop pile runners, the thickness of the pile above the substrate measured according to ISO 1766 shall be
¶ 12 mm. For pile runners: If the primary backing can be seen on a new unused piece of the runner when bent at 90° over a (12,5 ± 1) mm radius, the runner shall be deemed to be unsuitable as long as a visible backing is not part of the surface design. Assess the appearance of each test specimen using at least three independent assessors according to the characteristics given in Table B.1 (for loop pile runners), Table B.2 (for cut pile runners) or Table B.4 (for runners without pile). Pile runners showing a pile loss of more than three when assessed in accordance with Tables B.1 or B.2 shall be tested and classified according to the pile withdrawal force test given in Table B.3.
