European foreword
This document (prEN 18135:2024) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 134 “Resilient,
textile, laminate and modular mechanical locked floor coverings”, the secretariat of which is held by NBN.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
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).
Introduction
This product passport is intended to provide stakeholders with standardized information about a
product throughout its life cycle.
The passport defines what standard information to provide about products in transactions between
stakeholders throughout the chain. It helps to facilitate a circular economy for floor coverings by
providing users with information on a product’s constituents and structure and on how to treat the
product at end of life. The document also describes a system for unified coding of products to enable
simple identification.
Who does the standard address:
— Manufacturers
— End users
— Retailers
— Customers
— Contractors
— Installers
— Facility manager
— Recyclers
— Designers
— Developers
— Demolition professionals
— Disassemblers – flooring removers
This document is linked to the following Circular Economy standardization documents for floor
coverings:
— EN 17861: Resilient, textile, laminate and modular mechanical locked floor coverings — Circular
Economy — Terms and definitions
— CEN TS XXXX: Resilient, textile, laminate and modular mechanical locked floorcoverings — Circular

underlays excluding their packaging necessary for the implementation of a circular economy. The
intended use of this document is to provide information that allows different stakeholders to assess floor
coverings and underlays on product content, environmental information, reuse, and/or recycling
potential.

static and mechanical functions) or contaminating other products or assemblies
Note 1 to entry: Example: modular loose laid floor covering remove from its place while preserving its integrity.
As impacted by EN ISO 1043-1:2011/A1:2016.
3.3
dismantling
splitting a product into materials that can be reused or recycled
Note 1 to entry: Example: pieces of backing separated from the rest of the floor covering and re-processed to make
a new backing.

3.7
biomass cascading
biomass that has been processed into a bio-based end product is used at least once more, either as a

— single-stage cascade: the bio-based end product is used directly for energy after the material use has
taken place.
— multi-stage cascade: the bio-based end product is used at least once more for material use
