Overview
EN 12801:2000/A1:2001 is a CEN amendment to the European standard EN 12801 covering test methods for perspiration resistance of insoles, linings and insocks. Published by CEN and prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 309 “Footwear” (secretariat AENOR), this amendment updates the chemical composition of the alkaline perspiration solution used in the standard test procedure. The standard is relevant across CEN member states and carried the ICS code 61.060 (Footwear).
Key topics and requirements
- Purpose: defines procedures to assess how footwear components (insoles, linings, in-socks) resist degradation, staining or other effects caused by human perspiration.
- Amendment A1 focus: composition and preparation of the alkaline perspiration solution used in testing. The revised formulation (per litre) is:
- l‑histidine monohydrochloride monohydrate: 5.00 g
- Sodium chloride: 5.00 g
- Disodium hydrogen orthophosphate dihydrate: 2.50 g
- After preparation the solution is adjusted to pH 8 using 0.1 M sodium hydroxide.
- Standard status: this amendment replaces the whole text in clause 4.4 of EN 12801:2000 and was approved by CEN on 11 November 2001. National adoption and withdrawal deadlines were scheduled in line with CEN procedures.
Note: The full EN 12801 series contains additional procedural details (sample conditioning, exposure steps, evaluation criteria). Consult the official EN 12801:2000 and amendment documents for complete test protocols and acceptance criteria.
Applications and who uses it
- Footwear manufacturers: validating materials and constructions for comfort, durability and consumer safety.
- Quality control and testing laboratories: performing standardized perspiration resistance tests to certify conformity with European test methods.
- Materials suppliers and R&D teams: selecting or developing insole, lining and insock materials with improved sweat resistance.
- Regulatory and standards bodies: harmonizing test methods across markets to ensure comparable performance claims.
