Resilient floor coverings - Specification for plain and decorative linoleum on a corkment backing
This European Standard specifies the characteristics of plain and decorative linoleum on a corkment backing as a compound floor covering, supplied in roll form.
To encourage the consumer to make an informed choice, the standard includes a classification system based on intensity of use, which shows where resilient floor coverings should give satisfactory service (see EN 685). It also includes requirements for marking.
The term "linoleum" is frequently incorrectly applied to a range of floor coverings, often to those based on polyvinyl chloride or rubber. Such materials are not included in this European Standard.
Elastische Bodenbeläge - Spezifikation für Linoleum mit und ohne Muster mit Korkmentrücken
Diese Europäische Norm legt die Eigenschaften von ungemusterten und gemusterten Linoleum-
Bodenbelägen mit Korkmentrücken fest, die in Form von Rollen geliefert werden.
Um den Verbraucher bei seiner Auswahl zu unterstützen, enthält diese Norm ein Klassifizierungssystem
(siehe EN 685) auf Basis der Nutzungsintensität, das zeigt, wo für diese Bodenbeläge ein zufriedenstellender
Nutzen möglich wäre. Die Norm legt auch die Anforderungen zur Kennzeichnung fest.

Polyvinylchlorid oder Elastomeren, verwendet. Derartige Materialien sind nicht in dieser Europäischen Norm
eingeschlossen.
