Overview

EN 15619:2014 - published by CEN - specifies the characteristics, requirements and test methods for rubber or plastic coated fabrics intended for mobile, temporary structures (tents) and related assemblies (marquees, hangars, tent-halls, booths). The standard covers material properties, performance levels and conformity recommendations relevant to design, manufacture, installation and maintenance of tent membranes. Plastic films and materials other than coated fabrics are excluded.

Key topics and technical requirements

• Material description and scope - coated fabrics (woven or warp‑knitted substrates with one or more coating/topcoat layers); intended for temporary, mobile tents (see clause 3.3).
• Performance characteristics addressed with specified test methods:
  • Mass per unit area (EN ISO 2286-2)
  • Tensile strength and elongation (EN ISO 1421)
  • Tear strength (EN 1875-3)
  • Coating adhesion (Annex B; EN ISO 2411 referenced)
  • Dimensional stability and residual deformation (EN 15977)
  • Colour fastness to weathering / light - artificial ageing procedure (Annex A) based on EN ISO 4892-3; 2 000 h exposure used for comparative assessment
  • Susceptibility to microorganisms (EN ISO 846)
  • Reaction to fire / ignitability (EN ISO 11925-2) and Euroclass options
  • Appearance and visual defects inspection criteria
• Product profiling system - the standard defines multiple performance levels (e.g., F1–F3 for mechanical characteristics, T1–T4 for fire behaviour) so specifiers can compose a tailored “product profile” for specific uses.
• Annexes: Annex A (artificial ageing), Annex B (coating adhesion), Annex D (assessment of conformity). Annex C has been replaced by reference to EN 15977 / EN 15977:2011 where applicable.

Applications and practical use

• Selecting and specifying coated fabric materials for temporary structures exposed to wind, snow, UV and moisture.
• Guiding designers and structural engineers on material input values for calculations and safety margins.
• Defining acceptance criteria and sampling/testing plans for manufacturers and testing laboratories.
• Supporting procurement specifications for event organizers, rental companies, and tent manufacturers to ensure longevity, fire performance and weather resistance.

Who uses this standard

• Coated fabric producers and material suppliers
• Tent manufacturers and membrane system designers
• Testing laboratories and conformity assessment bodies
• Specifiers, architects, engineers, event planners and procurement teams responsible for temporary structures

Related standards

• EN 15977 (elongation, residual deformation)
• EN ISO 1421 (tensile testing), EN 1875-3 (tear), EN ISO 2286-2 (mass), EN ISO 4892-3 (UV ageing), EN ISO 11925-2 (ignitability), EN ISO 846 (microorganisms)
