European foreword
This document (prEN 15732:2019) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 88 “Thermal
insulating materials and products”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 15732:2012.
This document has been prepared under a standardization request given to CEN/CENELEC by the
European Commission and the European Free Trade Association.
For relationship with Regulation (EU) No 305/2011, see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part
of this document.
Annexes A, B, C and D are normative. Annex E is informative.
The most significant changes compared to the previous editions include:
a. Amending terminology and Annex ZA to be consistent with the Construction Products Regulation;
b. Adding a specific clause on declaration of dangerous substances based a dossier approved by EC;
c. Deleting the optional method using vacuum in Annex A;
d. Replacement of the former clause on Evaluation of Conformity, and the normative text from the
former Annex on factory Production Control, with new normative clauses on Assessment and
Verification of Constancy of Performance.
No changes to existing technical classes and/or threshold levels have been made.
