Overview
SIST EN 16025-2:2013 is a European standard that provides specifications for the processing and installation of in-situ formed bound expanded polystyrene (EPS) products (BEPS) for thermal and/or sound insulation in buildings. This document addresses requirements and guidelines for the proper use of factory premixed EPS dry plaster when applied to walls, ceilings, roofs, and floors, ensuring compliance with essential performance criteria and construction safety.
This standard, developed by SIST and aligned with EN 16025-1, helps ensure the installed insulation products meet the essential requirements of the EU Construction Products Directive. It also describes the necessary checks, measurements, and installer declarations needed for quality assurance but does not cover factory-made BEPS or set absolute performance benchmarks, as these must be established by national regulations or complementary standards.
Key Topics
- Product Scope: Covers in-situ formed bound EPS installation for thermal and sound insulation; excludes finished, factory-made BEPS products.
- Essential Requirements Connection: Details processing criteria to meet EU Construction Products Directive demands when paired with EN 16025-1.
- Installer Accountability: Stipulates installer responsibilities for measurement, records, and performance declarations.
- Measurements and Testing: Guides methods for measuring installed thickness, thermal resistance, fresh and installed bound EPS density, and residual moisture content.
- Suitability Assessment: Emphasizes evaluating the building’s suitability before installing BEPS products, following both manufacturer and national guidelines.
- Recordkeeping and Declarations: Requires installers to keep detailed installation records and provide customer declarations outlining key installation parameters (e.g., thickness, density, resistance).
Applications
Bound EPS insulation is used in new builds, renovations, and retrofits for:
- Thermal Insulation: Significantly reduces heat loss, conserves energy, and increases building energy efficiency when applied to floors, walls, ceilings, and roofs.
- Sound Insulation: Diminishes impact and airborne noise, enhancing overall acoustic performance in residential, commercial, and public buildings.
- Floor Preparation: The standard’s specifications for residual moisture and surface deformation ensure readiness for subsequent finishing layers or coverings.
- Compliance and Quality Assurance: Helps installers meet legal obligations concerning the Construction Products Directive, CE marking, and national building regulations.
By specifying installer responsibilities, installation methods, and measurement protocols, this standard helps minimize installation errors, improves overall building performance, and ensures long-term durability of EPS-based insulation solutions.
Related Standards
- EN 16025-1:2013: Defines requirements for factory premixed EPS dry plaster products before installation.
- EN 823:2013: Provides measurement methods for insulation thickness.
- EN ISO 9229:2007: Contains vocabulary relevant to thermal insulation.
- EN ISO 12570: Details procedures for determining moisture content in building materials.
- EN ISO 10456 / EN ISO 6946: Offers further calculation methods for thermal properties and performance of building elements.
For comprehensive compliance and best practice, SIST EN 16025-2:2013 should be used alongside these related standards. This integrated approach improves building envelope performance, aids regulatory compliance, and enhances both thermal comfort and acoustic regulation in all types of construction.

The second part, which is the non-harmonised part, covers the specification for the installed products. Both parts need to be used for the application of the insulation product in the end-use applications covered by the standard. Attention is drawn to the need to take into account any complementary member state rules (e.g. installation rules) which together with this document ensure the fitness for purpose of the installed product. This document is one of a series for mineral wool, expanded clay, expanded perlite, exfoliated vermiculite, polyurethane/polyisocyanurate, cellulose, bound EPS and expanded polystyrene in-situ formed insulation products used in buildings, but this document may be used in other areas where appropriate. The reduction in energy used and emissions produced during the installed life of insulation products exceeds by far the energy used and emissions made during the production and disposal processes.
