Plastics - Controlled loop recycling of PVC-U profiles from windows and doors
SIST EN 17410:2021

This document specifies the controlled loop and the definition of those material transformation steps which are relevant for product quality, in particular recycling input and output and profile manufacturing input and output.
Traceability tools are specified to characterize this loop as a controlled loop.
This document references existing quality and test methodologies for recycled PVC to be used in PVC-U profiles for windows and doors.
This document establishes the controlled loop treatment of PVC profiles in line with the general understanding of life cycles as outlined in EN 15804.
NOTE 1   With regard to PVC waste treatment, the present document relates to existing standards EN 15343, EN 15346 and EN 15347.
NOTE 2   With regard to semifinished and/or finished products, it refers to the European Standard PVC-U window profiles (see EN 12608-1) and to the European Standards for windows and doors (see EN 14351-1, EN 14351-2 and EN 16034).

This European Standard specifies the classifications, requirements and test methods for non-coated unplasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-U) profiles with light coloured surfaces intended to be used for the fabrication of windows and doors.
It is applicable to PVC-U profiles with the colorimetric co-ordinates measured on the visible surfaces, as follows:
-   L* ≥ 82 (chromaticity co-ordinate Y ≥ 60),
-   -2,5 ≤ a* ≤ 5,
-   -5 ≤ b* ≤ 15.
NOTE 1   For editorial reasons in this document the term "window" is used for window/door.

Plastics - Design for recycling of PVC based profiles for construction products
oSIST prEN 18066:2024

This document applies to unplasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-U) profiles that are intended to be used for the fabrication of windows and doors in accordance with the EN 14351 series or EN 16034, shutters according to EN 13659 and other construction profiles in accordance with the EN 13245 series. Furthermore, this document is also applicable for profiles used in other PVC-U products, which can include recyclates. This document gives references and specifies general and product-specific design for recycling principles.
NOTE 1   In this document, the term “PVC-U profiles” is used to refer to construction profiles made from PVC-U, PVC-UE, and PVC-U-based natural fibre composites (NFC).
NOTE 2   For editorial reasons in this document the term window is used for window/door.
Criteria for the use of materials, process conditions, and recyclability are defined, which are considered during the design process.
This document defines principles to
-   obtain the highest possible share of recyclability of the PVC-U part in the profile, and
-   increase the share of PVC-U recyclate in the profile,
while complying with requirements for the final product, where existent and defined elsewhere. This document establishes flowcharts which help to assess, (i) how recyclability is evaluated and (ii) whether inclusion of rPVC-U is possible.
The following components of the final PVC-U construction product are considered in this document:
-   profiles;
-   reinforcements;
-   gaskets;
-   insulations;
-   coverings.
This document specifies only the technical connection of the profile to other components (such as glazing or hardware) and their impact on the recyclability of the PVC-U profiles. The recyclability of the other components (e.g. glazing, aluminium cover, hardware) is excluded from this document.
NOTE 3   Examples for profiles included in this document and their intended use can be found in Figure 1.
