Overview

EN 927-2:2022 - published by CEN - is the European performance specification for paints and varnishes used as coating materials and coating systems for exterior wood. The standard defines mandatory performance criteria and a standardized reporting format for suppliers, specifiers and testing laboratories. Its primary aim is to give repeatable, comparable assessment of external durability so coating systems can be selected and certified for different end-use categories.

Key topics and technical requirements

  • Scope and purpose

    • Performance requirements are tied to three end‑use categories (defined in EN 927-1): stable, semi-stable, and non-stable substrates.
    • Provides a framework for claiming conformity and supports certification or procurement specifications.
  • Mandatory tests

    • Natural weathering according to EN 927-3 (flat pine panels, Pinus sylvestris) - used to assess external durability and key performance criteria.
    • Water permeability according to EN 927-5 - evaluates liquid water resistance of coating systems.
  • Optional (non‑mandatory) tests

    • A table of additional tests allows suppliers or specifiers to add performance information for particular situations. Examples include: artificial weathering (EN 927-6), knot staining (EN 927-7), adhesion after water exposure (CEN/TS 927-8, 927-9), blocking (EN 927-10), microfoam (EN 927-11), UV transmittance (CEN/TS 927-12), impact resistance (EN 927-13), tensile properties (EN 927-14), fungal and algal resistance (EN 16492), tannin staining and end‑grain sealing assessments.
    • Optional tests are reported in a standardized format as described in the document.
  • Testing profiles and reporting

    • Test profiles are aligned to the three end‑use categories to reflect expected wood movement and climatic exposure.
    • The standard describes how results should be expressed and how conformity claims can be made with flexibility for different situations.

Applications and who uses it

  • Manufacturers and R&D teams - product development, quality control and comparative performance testing.
  • Specification writers, architects and contractors - choosing appropriate exterior wood coatings for façades, cladding, joinery and external timber elements.
  • Testing laboratories and certification bodies - performing EN 927 series tests and issuing conformity or certification reports.
  • Procurement and compliance teams - including performance requirements in tenders and supplier claims.

Related standards

  • EN 927 series (Part 1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 10–14), CEN/TS 927-8/9/11/12, EN ISO 4618, EN 16492 and others referenced in EN 927-2:2022 for specific test methods and terminology.

Introduction
This document is one of a number of parts of EN 927. EN 927-1 addresses the issue of terminology for
the wide variety of exterior coatings for wood that are now available. EN 927-1 also provides a
framework for communicating information on the suitability of a coating for particular specific end-use
categories. Improved communication is beneficial in the removal of technical barriers to trade. However,
there remains the problem of comparing products tested, or likely to be exposed, in different climatic
regions, and the relevance of tests for different categories of end-use. This document addresses these
issues and sets a limited number of mandatory performance criteria combined with optional tests that
can provide additional information to a standardized format.
1 Scope
This document addresses performance criteria for coating systems on exterior wood. Performance
requirements are specified according to three categories of end use (defined in EN 927-1) in terms of two
