CEN/TC 155/WG 17 - Plastic components for the use of renovation of piping systems

CEN/TC 155/WG 17 is a Working Group within the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). It is named "Plastic components for the use of renovation of piping systems" and is responsible for: Standardisation of techniques for renovation and trenchless replacement on and off the line of existing pipelines, using plastics piping systems of thermoplastics, thermosetting and/or plastics composite materials, including the classification and information on design of such systems. Areas of application include nonpressure and pressurised drainage and sewerage networks, water supply networks and gas supply networks This committee has published 52 standards.

CEN/TC 155/WG 17 develops CEN standards. The scope of work includes: Standardisation of techniques for renovation and trenchless replacement on and off the line of existing pipelines, using plastics piping systems of thermoplastics, thermosetting and/or plastics composite materials, including the classification and information on design of such systems.

The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) is a public standards organization that brings together the national standardization bodies of 34 European countries. CEN provides a platform for developing European Standards (ENs) and other technical documents in relation to various products, materials, services, and processes, supporting the European Single Market.

A Working Group in CEN is a specialized group responsible for developing standards or technical work within a defined scope. These bodies bring together international experts to create consensus-based standards that support global trade, safety, and interoperability.
