SIST EN 599-2:2017

Durability of wood and wood-based products - Efficacy of preventive wood preservatives as determined by biological tests - Part 2: Labelling

This European Standard specifies the requirements for labelling wood preservative products according to their efficacy and suitability for use, for each of the five use classes defined in EN 335.
This European Standard is applicable to all wood preservative products supplied for application in liquid form for the preventive treatment of timbers (structural and non-structural) against wood-attacking fungi, wood-attacking insects and marine organisms as described in EN 1001-2 and EN 335. It is applicable to products for preventive treatments against fungi causing disfigurement (blue stain) of wood in service, only if this forms part of the overall preventive effectiveness of the product.
This European Standard is not applicable to wood preservative products supplied for application as pastes, solids or in capsule form because they cannot be tested without modification of the biological tests demanded in this standard. It does not apply either to wood preservative products for remedial (curative) treatments or to those applied to prevent fungi causing sap stain on green (unseasoned) timber.

Dauerhaftigkeit von Holz und Holzprodukten - Anforderungen an Holzschutzmittel wie sie durch biologische Prüfungen ermittelt werden - Teil 2: Kennzeichnung

Diese Europäische Norm legt für jede der fünf in EN 335 definierten Gebrauchsklassen die Anforderungen an die Kennzeichnung von Holzschutzmitteln entsprechend ihrer Wirksamkeit und Gebrauchstauglichkeit fest.
Diese Europäische Norm kann für alle Holzschutzmittelprodukte angewendet werden, die für eine Anwendung in flüssiger Form zur vorbeugenden Behandlung von Hölzern (tragend und nicht tragend) gegen Holz zerstörende Pilze vorgesehen sind, sowie gegen Holz zerstörende Insekten und gegen marine Organismen, wie in EN 1001 2 und EN 335 beschrieben. Für Produkte zur vorbeugenden Behandlung gegen Holz verfärbende Pilze an verarbeitetem Holz (Bläue) ist sie nur anwendbar, wenn dies Bestandteil der gesamten vorbeugenden Wirkung des Produktes ist.
Diese Europäische Norm kann nicht für Holzschutzmittel angewendet werden, die für eine Anwendung als Pasten, Presslinge oder in verkapselter Form vorgesehen sind, da diese nicht ohne Modifikation der in dieser Norm geforderten biologischen Prüfungen geprüft werden können. Sie ist ferner nicht für Holzschutzmittel zur bekämpfenden Behandlung geeignet oder für solche, die den Befall durch Holz verfärbende Pilze von saftfrischem (nicht getrocknetem) Holz verhindern.

Durabilité du bois et des matériaux dérivés du bois - Efficacité des produits préventifs de préservation du bois établie par des essais biologiques - Partie 2 : Étiquetage

La présente partie de l'EN 599 spécifie des exigences relatives à l'étiquetage des produits de préservation du bois en fonction de leur efficacité et de leur aptitude à l'emploi, pour chacune des cinq classes d'emploi définies dans l'EN 335.
La présente partie de l'EN 599 est applicable à tous les produits de préservation du bois destinés à être appliqués sous forme liquide pour le traitement préventif des bois (utilisés ou non en structure) contre les champignons dégradant le bois, les insectes xylophages et les térébrants marins, tels que décrits dans l'EN 1001-2 et l'EN 335. Elle est applicable aux produits de traitement préventif contre les champignons qui provoquent la discoloration (bleuissement) du bois en service uniquement si cela est inclus dans l'efficacité préventive globale du produit.
La présente partie de l'EN 599 n'est pas applicable aux produits de préservation du bois destinés à être appliqués à l'état de pâte, à l'état solide ou encapsulés, car il est impossible de soumettre à l'essai de tels produits selon les méthodes d'essais biologiques retenues dans la présente norme sans que celles-ci ne soient modifiées. La présente norme n'est applicable ni aux produits de préservation du bois pour traitements curatifs, ni à ceux appliqués en vue de protéger le bois frais (non séché) contre les champignons de bleuissement.

Trajnost lesa in lesnih proizvodov - Učinkovitost biocidnih proizvodov za preventivno zaščito lesa, določena z biološkimi preskusi - 2. del: Označevanje

Ta evropski standard določa zahteve za označevanje biocidnih proizvodov za zaščito lesa v skladu z njihovo učinkovitostjo in primernostjo za uporabo za vsakega od petih razredov uporabe, opredeljenih v standardu EN 335.
Ta evropski standard se uporablja za vse biocidne proizvode za zaščito lesa, ki so namenjeni tekočemu nanosu za preventivno impregnacijo (konstrukcijskega in nekonstrukcijskega) lesa proti lesnim glivam, lesnim žuželkam in morskim organizmom, kot je opisano v standardu EN 1001 2 in EN 335. Uporablja se za proizvode za preventivno impregnacijo proti glivam, ki povzročajo trohnenje lesa (gliva modrivka), samo če je to del splošne preventivne učinkovitosti proizvoda.
Ta evropski standard se ne uporablja za nanašalne biocidne proizvode za zaščito lesa v obliki paste, kapsule ali v trdnem agregatnem stanju, ker jih ni mogoče preskusiti brez spreminjanja bioloških preskusov, zahtevanih v tem standardu. Prav tako se ne uporablja za biocidne proizvode za zaščito lesa za sanacijo (kurativo) ali tiste proizvode za preprečevanje pojava gliv, ki povzročajo madeže beljave na zelenem (svežem) lesu.

Overview

EN 599-2:2016 - "Durability of wood and wood-based products - Efficacy of preventive wood preservatives as determined by biological tests - Part 2: Labelling" (CEN) defines the labelling requirements for preventive wood preservative products based on their tested efficacy and suitability for use classes defined in EN 335. The standard applies to liquid-form preservatives for preventive treatment of structural and non‑structural timbers against wood‑attacking fungi, insects and marine organisms. It is not applicable to pastes, solids, capsules, remedial (curative) treatments or products for sap‑stain prevention on green timber.

Key topics and requirements

• Mandatory label information (must be on the container or accompany the product):
  • Product name (trade name)
  • Use class(es) (as per EN 335) for which efficacy has been demonstrated
  • Application process(es) - whether superficial (brush, spray, dipping, etc.) or penetrating (vacuum/pressure, double vacuum, etc.)
  • Type(s) of wood suitable (softwood, hardwood or both)
  • Target organisms tested and effective against (e.g., brown/white rot fungi, soft rot, blue stain in service, Hylotrupes bajulus, Lyctus brunneus, Anobium punctatum, termites, marine organisms)
  • Application rate/retention - calculated in accordance with EN 351‑1 from the critical values in EN 599‑1; expressed as g/m2 for superficial treatments and kg/m3 (retention) for penetrating treatments
• Testing linkage: Labelling claims must be supported by biological efficacy tests carried out according to EN 599‑1.
• Presentation guidance: Annex A gives an example label format (e.g., Use class UC2; UC3, application methods and example application rates).
• Regulatory note: Labels must include any additional information required by European or national laws.

Practical applications

• Manufacturers use EN 599‑2:2016 to create compliant, transparent product labels that communicate tested efficacy and correct use.
• Product specifiers, architects, builders and contractors rely on labelled use‑class and application‑rate information to select appropriate preservatives for specific exposure conditions.
• Testing laboratories and conformity assessors use the standard as part of documentation and reporting of EN 599‑1 test results.
• Regulatory bodies and procurement teams reference the label data when assessing product suitability for construction and marine projects.

Who should use this standard

• Wood preservative manufacturers and formulators
• Technical product managers and regulatory compliance teams
• Construction specifiers, timber treatment processors and applicators
• Test laboratories and certification bodies

Related standards

• EN 599‑1 (efficacy testing/specification)
• EN 335 (use classes)
• EN 351‑1 (preservative penetration and retention)
