Agglomerated stone - Terminology and classification
This document specifies the terminology and classification of the agglomerated stone products. Agglomerated stone products are industrial products mainly made of hydraulic cement, resin or mixture of both, stones and other additions. They are industrially manufactured in geometrical shapes at a fixed plant by means of moulding techniques. They are put on the market in the form of dimensional shapes and cut to size material.
NOTE All other products with resin concrete techniques (using common aggregates and not finalised to flooring, wall finishes and assimilated uses), like drainage channels, structural elements, etc., are excluded from the field of this standard.
Künstlich hergestellter Stein - Terminologie und Klassifizierung
Dieses Dokument legt Terminologie und Klassifizierung von Produkten aus künstlich hergestelltem Stein fest.
Bei diesen Produkten handelt es sich um industriell hergestellte Produkte, die überwiegend aus
hydraulischem Zement oder/und Harz, Steinen und anderen Zusätzen bestehen. Sie werden industriell als
Formsteine in festen Produktionsanlagen mit Hilfe von Gießverfahren gefertigt. Auf dem Markt werden sie als
Formsteine und als zugeschnittenes Material angeboten.
ANMERKUNG Alle übrigen Produkte, die aus Harz und Beton hergestellt werden (unter Anwendung herkömmlicher
Gesteinskörnungen und die nicht für Fußbodenbeläge, Wandflächen und vergleichbare Anwendungen festgelegt sind),
wie Entwässerungskanäle, Bauelemente usw., fallen nicht in den Anwendungsbereich dieser Norm.
Pierre agglomérée - Terminologie et classification
Le présent document spécifie la terminologie et la classification des produits en pierre agglomérée. Les produits en pierre agglomérée sont des produits industriels fabriqués principalement a base de ciment hydraulique, de résine ou du mélange des deux, de pierres et d'autres produits d'addition. Ils sont fabriqués industriellement en formes géométriques dans des installations fixes au moyen de techniques de moulage. Ils sont mis sur le marché sous formes dimensionnelles et de produit coupé sur mesure.
NOTE Tous les autres produits employant des techniques de béton de résine (utilisant des granulats courants et dont la finition n'est pas destinée au revetement de sol, de mur et assimilés), tels que réseaux d'évacuation, éléments structurels, etc., sont exclus du domaine d'application de la présente norme.

1 Scope
This document specifies the terminology and classification of the agglomerated stone products. Agglomerated
stone products are industrial products mainly made of hydraulic cement, resin or mixture of both, stones and other
additions. They are industrially manufactured in geometrical shapes at a fixed plant by means of moulding
techniques. They are put on the market in the form of dimensional shapes and cut to size material.
NOTE All other products with resin concrete techniques (using common aggregates and not finalised to flooring, wall
finishes and assimilated uses), like drainage channels, structural elements, etc., are excluded from the field of this standard.
2 Normative reference
The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references,
only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any
amendments) applies.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in EN 12670:2001, EN 206-1:2000 and EN 197-
1:2000 and the following apply.
3.1
agglomerated stones
industrial products manufactured from a mixture of aggregates (mainly coming from natural stones), additions and
binder The binder could be resin, hydraulic cement or mixture of both (in various percentages). The products are
realised in form of blocks or slabs, which can be transformed in finished slabs, tiles, vanity tops or similar elements.
Under the agglomerated stones term fall architectural elements, complementary to products for flooring and wall
finishes, obtained by moulding technique which can or cannot be subsequently cut to size. Products realised with
the technology of the agglomerated stones could be impregnated by suitable chemicals in order to impermeabilize
the open pores.
3.2
classification of agglomerated stones
agglomerated stone products consist of natural stone elements (which will be termed aggregates) bound via resin
and filler or cement and water (which will be termed paste components) The manufacturing process is irreversible
and the stone elements can be of various size and nature, sometime mixed with other compatible materials.
The agglomerated stone products are classified according to the manufacturing technology, the type of the binder
and the nature of the stone elements.
NOTE If the volume of the binding material is greater than the volume of the stone elements, the resulting material cannot
be classified as agglomerated stone.

3.2.1
classification according to the type of the binder
agglomerated stone products can be bound by unsaturated polyester resin or other cross-linking resin
Agglomerated stone products can be bound by cement (white or grey).
Agglomerated stone products can be bound by mixture of resin and cement.
3.2.2
classification according to the mineral nature of the stone elements
agglomerated stone products can be constituted of stone elements of carbonate nature
Agglomerated stone products can be constituted of stone elements of silica nature.
Agglomerated stone products can be constituted of stone elements both of carbonate and silica nature.
4 Terminology of agglomerated stones
4.1 Terms of fragmented natural stone elements
4.1.1
aggregate
mixture of natural stone fragments derived from incoherent rocks (sand) or from fragmented coherent carbonate -
type rocks (marble and limestone) or silica - type rocks (granite, quartzite, etc.); the maximum linear size of these
fragments may vary up to 150 mm, or more
