Thermal insulation products for buildings - External thermal insulation composite systems with renders (ETICS) - Specification
This document specifies the characteristics and performance for design External Thermal Insulation Composite Systems (design ETICS) with rendering systems on thermal insulation products, delivered as a kit by a system holder, and used as thermal insulation for buildings.
This document covers design ETICS kits on walls which are made of masonry (bricks, blocks, stones, etc.) or concrete (cast on site or as prefabricated panels) with or without rendering systems. This document covers ETICS with thermal insulation products made of cellular glass, expanded polystyrene, expanded cork, mineral wool, phenolic foam, rigid polyurethane foam, extruded polystyrene foam or wood fibre as far as they comply with Annex B.
A design ETICS kit comprises a prefabricated insulation product bonded onto the wall, or mechanically fixed using anchors, profiles, etc., or a combination of adhesive and mechanical fixings. The insulation product is faced with a rendering system consisting of one or more layers (site applied), one of which contains reinforcement. The rendering system is applied directly to the insulating panels, without an air gap or disconnecting layer.
This document is not applicable for:
a) Mechanically fixed kits with supplementary adhesive with the mass per unit area of the rendering system of > 40 kg/m2 in end use conditions intended by the system holder and/or mechanical fixed kits with the mass per unit area of the rendering system plus thermal insulation product of > 65 kg/m2 intended by the system holder.
b) Mechanically fixed kits without supplementary adhesive with the mass per unit area of the rendering system of > 30 kg/m2 in end use conditions intended by the system holder and/or mechanical fixed kits with the mass per unit area of the rendering system plus thermal insulation product of > 60 kg/m2 intended by the system holder and/or with a thickness of the thermal insulation product intended by the system holder of > 200 mm. For thermal insulations products with thicknesses ≤ 200 mm fixed with anchors without supplementary adhesive, the bending deformation of the mechanically fixing devices is assumed as negligible.
c) Purely bonded kits with or without supplementary mechanically fixing devices with bonded area (coverage) less than 40 %, intended by the system holder.
d) Mechanically fixed kits with supplementary adhesive with bonded area (coverage) less than 40 %, intended by the system holder.
e) Kits incorporating a thermal insulation product providing a declared thermal resistance of less than 1 m2K/W.
External insulation and finishing systems (EIFS) according to ISO 17738 are not covered by this standard.
Wärmedämmstoffe für Gebäude - Außenseitige Wärmedämmverbundsysteme mit Putzoberfläche (WDVS) - Spezifikation
Dieses Dokument legt die Eigenschaften und Leistung von Konstruktions-Wärmedämm-Verbundsystemen (Konstruktions WDVS) mit Putzsystemen auf Wärmedämmstoffen fest, die als Bausatz von einem System¬halter geliefert und für die Wärmedämmung von Gebäuden genutzt werden.
Dieses Dokument behandelt Konstruktions WDVS-Bausätze an verputzten oder unverputzten Wänden aus Mauerwerk (Ziegel, Steine usw.) oder Beton (Ortbeton oder Betonfertigteile). Dieses Dokument behandelt WDVS mit Wärmedämmstoffen aus Schaumglas, expandiertem Polystyrol, expandiertem Kork, Mineralwolle, Phenolharzschaum, Polyurethan-Hartschaum, Polystyrol-Extruderschaumstoff oder Holzfasern soweit sie den Vorgaben in Anhang B entsprechend.
Ein Konstruktions WDVS-Bausatz besteht aus einem vorgefertigten Wärmedämmstoff, der auf die Wand aufgeklebt, oder mithilfe von mechanischen Befestigungsmitteln, wie z. B. Dübeln, Profilen usw., oder einer Kombination aus Kleber und mechanischen Befestigungsmitteln angebracht wird. Der Wärmedämmstoff wird mit einem Putzsystem beschichtet, das aus mindestens einer (vor Ort aufgebrachten) Schicht besteht, wovon eine bewehrt ist. Das Putzsystem wird direkt ohne Luftspalt oder Trennschicht auf die Wärmedämm¬platten aufgebracht.
Dieses Dokument gilt nicht für:
a) Bausätze zur Anbringung mit mechanischen Befestigungsmitteln und zusätzlichem Kleber mit einer flächenbezogenen Masse des Putzsystems von > 40 kg/m2 und/oder Bausätze zur Anbringung mit mechanischen Befestigungsmitteln mit einer flächenbezogenen Masse des Putzsystems und Wärme¬dämmstoffs von zusammen > 65 kg/m2 jeweils unter den vom Systemhalter vorgesehenen Endeinsatz¬bedingungen;
b) Bausätze zur Anbringung mit mechanischen Befestigungsmitteln ohne zusätzlichen Kleber mit einer flächenbezogenen Masse des Putzsystems von > 30 kg/m2 und/oder Bausätze zur Anbringung mit mechanischen Befestigungsmitteln mit einer flächenbezogenen Masse des Putzsystems und Wärme¬dämmstoffs von zusammen > 60 kg/m2 jeweils unter den vom Systemhalter vorgesehenen Endeinsatzbedingungen und/oder mit einer vom Systemhalter vorgesehen Dicke des Wärmedämm¬stoffs von > 200 mm. Bei Wärmedämmstoffen mit einer Dicke von ≤ 200 mm, die mit Dübeln ohne zusätzlichen Kleber befestigt werden, wird die Biegeverformung des mechanischen Befestigungsmittels als vernachlässigbar betrachtet;
c) ausschließlich geklebte Bausätze mit oder ohne zusätzliche Verwendung von mechanischen Befestigungsmitteln mit einer vom Systemhalter vorgesehenen Klebfläche (Deckfläche) von weniger als 40 %;
d) mechanisch mit zusätzlichem Kleber befestigte Bausätze mit einer vom Systemhalter vorgesehenen Klebfläche (Deckfläche) von weniger als 40 %;
e) Bausätze, die einen Wärmedämmstoff mit einem angegebenen Wärmedurchlasswiderstand von unter 1 m2K/W beinhalten.

European foreword
This document (prEN 17237:2022) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 88 “Thermal
insulating materials and products”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document has been prepared under a Standardization Request given to CEN by the European
Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of
EU Directive(s) / Regulation(s).
For relationship with EU Directive(s) / Regulation(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part
of this document.
The assessment methods take into account a working life of the ETIC kit for the intended use of 50 years,
if installed and maintained properly in the works.
Introduction
This document has been created by CEN/TC88/WG18, supported by many experts from across Europe.
As different stakeholders were involved, in particular regulators, testing institutes, manufacturers (=
system holders) and component suppliers, the current enquiry version considers many aspects of later
use. However, the communication and discussion between all stakeholders should go on during enquiry.
For that reason, the European Association for External Thermal Insulation Composite Systems (EAE)
volunteered to constantly support the dialogue. Currently an FAQ list, online trainings and discussions
are intended to support the enquiry. For latest information see https://www.ea-etics.eu.
