Overview

SIST EN 14306:2016/oprA1:2019 is a European standard specification for factory-made calcium silicate (CS) thermal insulation products used in building equipment and industrial installations. This amendment to the original EN 14306:2015 supports compliance with the Construction Products Regulation (CPR), ensuring that products meet harmonized regulatory requirements across European markets. It includes updates on normative references, fire reaction classifications, and factory production control among other revisions. The standard defines essential characteristics, testing methods, and conformity assessment procedures for calcium silicate insulation materials.

Key Topics

• Thermal insulation for building and industrial equipment: Specifies properties of calcium silicate products designed to provide thermal insulation and improve energy efficiency in technical building systems and industrial settings.
• CPR compliance: Updates ensure that calcium silicate products conform to the Construction Products Regulation (EU No. 305/2011), crucial for CE marking and market access.
• Fire safety classifications: Introduces reaction to fire classes "E" and "F" while maintaining the possibility of declaring class A1 fire reaction under specified conditions.
• Release of dangerous substances: Reference to EN 16516 for testing emissions into indoor air, supporting health and safety requirements.
• Factory Production Control (FPC): Defines the system manufacturers must establish and maintain to ensure consistent product performance over time, including initial inspections and ongoing surveillance.
• Thermal conductivity requirements: Specifies methods for determining thermal conductivity curves in accordance with EN ISO 13787.
• Removal of continuous glowing combustion: Clause 4.3.9 concerning continuous glowing combustion testing has been deleted to reflect updated safety assessment needs.
• Designation and marking: Outlines rules for product designation codes and marking to convey key performance data effectively.

Applications

SIST EN 14306:2016/oprA1:2019 standard applies primarily to:

• Building equipment insulation: Thermal insulation products utilized in HVAC systems, pipework, and other technical building installations requiring heat retention or loss prevention.
• Industrial plant insulation: Calcium silicate products used for insulating industrial pipework, vessels, tanks, and equipment where high temperature resistance and durability are required.
• Regulatory compliance: Manufacturers aiming to sell calcium silicate insulation products within Europe will use this standard to produce Declaration of Performance (DoP) documents and affix CE marking, thus meeting legal requirements.
• Quality assurance and safety: Ensures that insulation products meet performance, fire safety, and environmental standards essential for safe application in occupied buildings and industrial environments.

Related Standards

• EN 16516 - Construction products - Assessment of release of dangerous substances - Determination of emissions into indoor air: referenced for testing potentially hazardous emission levels from insulation products.
• EN ISO 13787 - Thermal insulating products for industrial installations and building equipment - Determination of thermal conductivity by the guarded hot plate and heat flow meter methods: used for measuring thermal performance.
• EN 13172 - Assessment and verification of constancy of performance for construction products: defines conformity assessment procedures required for Factory Production Control.
• Other related fire reaction testing standards such as EN ISO 1182, EN ISO 1716, EN 13820, EN 13823, and EN ISO 11925-2 for classification and fire safety evaluation.

Summary

SIST EN 14306:2016/oprA1:2019 is essential for manufacturers, architects, engineers, and specifiers involved in specifying or producing calcium silicate thermal insulation for building and industrial applications. By aligning product characteristics with European regulatory demands-including thermal performance, fire safety, and emission standards-the amendment facilitates safer, more compliant insulation solutions across varied environments. Adherence to this standard supports sustainable building practices and ensures products meet stringent European quality and safety benchmarks.
