Cement-bonded particleboards - Definition and classification

This European standard gives a definition and classification of cement-bonded particleboards.  NOTE: This European Standard does not cover particleboards manufactured with organic binders, which are defined and classified in EN 309, or particleboards manufactured with a gypsum binder.

Zementgebundene Spanplatten - Definition und Klassifizierung

Diese Europäische Norm gibt eine Definition und Klassifizierung für zementgebundene Spanplatten.  ANMERKUNG: Diese Europäische Norm behandelt weder Spanplatten mit organischen Bindemitteln, die in EN 309 definiert und klassifiziert sind noch Spanplatten mit Gips als Bindemittel.

Panneaux de particules liées au ciment - Définition et classification

La présente Norme Européenne donne une définition et une classification pour les panneaux de particules liées au ciment.  NOTE: La présente Norme Européenne ne couvre ni les panneaux de particules fabriqués avec des liants organiques, définis et classés en EN 309, ni les panneaux de particules fabriqués avec un liant plâtre.

Overview

EN 633:1993 - Cement-bonded particleboards: Definition and classification is a European standard published by CEN that provides authoritative definitions and a classification framework for cement-bonded particleboards. The standard clarifies terminology and how cement-bonded particleboards are categorized for use in industry and construction. It specifically excludes particleboards made with organic binders (see EN 309) and boards manufactured with gypsum binders.

Key topics

  • Definitions and terminology
    • Establishes consistent names and descriptive terms for cement-bonded particleboards to ensure clear communication across manufacturers, suppliers, specifiers and regulators.
  • Classification principles
    • Sets out the basis for grouping cement-bonded particleboards into classes relevant to their composition, intended application and performance characteristics.
  • Scope boundaries
    • Clarifies what is covered by EN 633 and what is excluded (notably organic-bonded boards covered by EN 309 and gypsum-bonded boards).
  • Relationship to other documents
    • Indicates how EN 633 fits into the wider body of standards for fibre and particle boards (ICS 79.060.20) and points users to complementary standards for testing and performance criteria.

Note: EN 633 focuses on definition and classification rather than specifying detailed test methods or numeric performance limits; those are addressed in complementary standards.

Applications

  • Useful for professionals involved in specification, procurement and quality assurance of construction materials where cement-bonded particleboards are considered.
  • Common users include:
    • Architects and building designers specifying board types for external and internal applications
    • Manufacturers and product developers ensuring consistent product labeling and classification
    • Construction contractors and façade installers selecting suitable materials for moisture- or cement-based applications
    • Certification bodies and testing laboratories referencing normative definitions when applying performance standards
  • Helps ensure correct material selection for applications where cement-bound properties (durability, moisture resistance, fire behaviour, etc.) are relevant.

Related standards

  • EN 309 - Particleboards manufactured with organic binders (excluded from EN 633)
  • Other CEN/CENELEC standards and national adoptions addressing test methods, performance criteria and product specifications for fibre and particle boards (see ICS 79.060.20)

Keywords: EN 633, cement-bonded particleboards, classification, definition, European standard, CEN, construction materials, particleboard standards.
