EN 15114:2006+A1:2008 (E) 7 4.2 Levels of use & classification 4.2.1 General Textile floor coverings without pile are classified as to their suitability for use according to different circumstances (see Table 3). The two classification properties, wear and change in appearance, are intended to indicate suitability according to use intensity (level of classes 21 to 33 in increasing order of use intensity). The symbols for the use classes, luxury rating classes and additional characteristics are listed in CEN/TS 15398 and can also be found on www.floorsymbols.com . The level of use class allocated to a floor covering is the lower of the classes obtained after application of 4.2.2, 4.2.3 and 4.2.4. Table 3 — Levels of use
