EN 13169:2012 (E) 4 Foreword This document (EN 13169:2012) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 88 “Thermal insulating materials and products”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by May 2013, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by May 2013. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN [and/or CENELEC] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This document supersedes EN 13169:2008. This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s). For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document. Compared with EN 13169:2008, the main changes are: a) better harmonisation between the individual standards of the package (EN 13162 to EN 13171) on definitions, requirements, classes and levels; b) new normative annex on multi-layered products; c) changes on some editorial and technical content and addition of information on some specific items; d) addition of links to EN 15715, Thermal insulation products — Instructions for mounting and fixing for reaction to fire testing — Factory made products; e) changes to Annex ZA. This standard is one of a series of standards for thermal insulation products used in buildings, but this standard may be used in other areas where appropriate.
