Foreword
This European Standard (EN 13172:2001/A1:2005) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 88
“Thermal insulating materials and products”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN.
This Amendment to the European Standard EN 13172:2001 shall be given the status of a national standard,
either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by December 2005, and conflicting
national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by December 2005.
This amendment to EN 13172:2001 makes some corrections and clarifications and a re-arrangement to the
text, viz,
Terms and definitions have been modified and information on grouping have been added in Clause 4;
Clause 7 is renamed as Annex F (informative) and the content has been revised;
Annex A (informative, for voluntary certification) has been updated to avoid unnecessary testing in the
case of nonconformity and Table A.1 has been updated to cover both the standards for factory made
building products and for products for building equipment and industrial installations.
According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following
countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic,
Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania,
Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland
and United Kingdom.

1 Scope
This European Standard makes some corrections and clarifications as well as a rearrangement of some of its
clauses as follows:
3 Terms and definitions
3.1
product
item or good produced under conditions which are presumed uniform to a given specification and placed on
the market
“Renumber 3.3 as 3.6”
“Renumber 3.4 as 3.7”
Three new definitions are added as follows:
3.3
production line
assemblage of equipment that produces products using a continuous process
3.4
production unit
assemblage of equipment that produces products using a discontinuous process
3.5
production plant/factory
production equipment on the same site including all production lines and units
4 General requirements
Replace the following amended text of "4 General requirements":
The evaluation of conformity involves either a manufacturer or a manufacturer in conjunction with a third party.
The procedure is given either in the relevant product standard or agreed between parties; it shall include at
least those tasks given in Clause 5. The tasks for the third party and/or the manufacturer shall be carried out
in accordance with the requirements of Clause 7 of the product standard, which makes reference to this
standard and one or more of the Annexes B, C, or D for the purposes of CE marking.
NOTE Annex A is included for the purposes of voluntary product certification.
The content of Clause 5 will also be met by supplementing the provisions of EN ISO 9001 with requirements
of this standard.
Products may be collected into product groups for declaration and testing purposes subject to the following
conditions:
• they shall have the same type of production process and shall be derived from the same family of raw
material; a distinction is made between glass wool and rock wool and between foams with different
blowing agents;
• they shall differ only in aspects that do not influence the properties required in the relevant product
standard;

EN 13172:2001/A1:2005 (E)
• they shall be covered by a single thermal insulation standard, e.g. from the series EN 13162 to
EN 13171;
• products which differ only with regard to some properties may be grouped together by their common
properties;
• products which are identical except the facing and for which the different facings have been shown to
have the same effect on the declared characteristics (e.g. regarding thermal properties, the gas tight
facings of some PUR products), may be grouped.
Products covered by more than one European Standard may be grouped for testing purposes only providing
that,
• they have a common production specification and that they are from the same type of production
process and the same family of raw material, e.g. cellular glass for the EN 13167 and prEN 14305.
The properties outside this (these) common group(s) shall be tested product by product.
Products which are outside the scope of a product standard cannot be grouped for declaration purposes with
products declared under the scope of that standard.
Providing that a product within the group meets the requirements of the product standard then all products
within the same group shall be deemed to comply with the product standard for the properties concerned. If
the same product fails to comply with the product standard then the whole group shall be assumed to have
failed to comply with the product standard.”

Annex A
(informative)
Certification of conformity (not for CE marking purposes)
Delete A.2.4.3 and substitute the following:
A.2.4.3 Audit testing
Audit samples shall be taken for checking conformity with the product standard. Samples shall be taken at
random normally during a routine inspection at the factory and they shall be representative of the normal
production. Only if it is agreed between the approved body and the manufacturer, shall samples be taken from
elsewhere.
The representative of the approved body shall ensure that the manufacturer is aware of his responsibility to
forward the selected samples to the testing laboratory in proper condition and without undue delay.
Audit testing shall be conducted for the characteristics listed in Table A.1 at least once a year, except for the
reaction to fire and lambda curve characteristics, where the frequency shall be once every 2 years. For each
product group the approved body shall select one sample for test (from each factory).
