Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national

standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally

carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a

technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee.

International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in

the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all

matters of electrotechnical standardization.

The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are

described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the

different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the

editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of

patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of

any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or

on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).

Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not

constitute an endorsement.

Introduction

This voluntary sustainability Standard outlines the requirements for sustainable tiles and installation

materials including environmental, economic and social criteria, in order to:

promote the development and use of sustainable ceramic tiles and installation materials

guide all stakeholders in environmental responsibility throughout the supply chain for tiles and

installation materials;

provide a verifiable resource for tile product specification and for design professionals, contractors and

consumers to identify sustainable tiles and installation materials;

increase the value of sustainable tiles and installation materials throughout the supply chain by creating

greater market awareness and demand.

This Standard provides a system for sustainability assessment of products throughout their life cycle

using qualitative and quantitative indicators for environmental performance and for social and

economic responsibility pertaining to the design, manufacture, installation, and use of ceramic tiling

systems. This Part 1 is focused on ceramic tiles, as part of the tiling system.

This Standard can be used to assess the sustainability performance of the product of interest.

Evaluation schemes, taking into account the materials mentioned in the product standards, to

enable comparability of the results of assessment, are part of this standard.

This assessment may be used to support certification schemes for buildings in fulfilling

sustainability criteria.
