Overview - EN 13859-2:2014 (Underlays for walls)

EN 13859-2:2014 is the CEN European standard that defines the definitions, characteristics and conformity assessment for flexible sheets used as underlays for walls. It covers factory-made flexible sheets (bitumen, plastic, rubber or other suitable materials) placed behind external wall claddings to prevent wind-driven rain and water ingress. The standard specifies required product characteristics, test methods, sampling, and procedures for assessment and verification of constancy of performance (AVCP) to support CE marking under the Construction Products Regulation (CPR).

Key topics and technical requirements

  • Scope and purpose: Characteristics of underlay sheets for external walls to avoid penetration of wind and water.
  • Product characteristics: Dimensions, straightness, mass per unit area, water penetration resistance, water vapour transmission (sd value), resistance to air penetration, reaction to fire, emissivity (newly added), and dangerous substances.
  • Performance classes for water resistance: Classification into W1, W2, W3 based on standard test results (W1 = passes watertightness test; W2/W3 = progressively lower resistance).
  • Tolerances and sampling: Manufacturer declared values (MDV), manufacturer limiting values (MLV), and tolerances on length/width/straightness (e.g., straightness tolerance example: 30 mm per 10 m).
  • Testing methods: Normative references to standardized test methods for tensile properties, tear resistance, watertightness, water vapour transmission, artificial ageing (UV/heat), and reaction to fire.
  • Conformity & factory production control (FPC): Type testing, FPC requirements, product data sheet, marking, labelling and CE marking procedures (Annex ZA relates to CPR).

Practical applications

  • Specification and selection of wall underlays in new build and renovation projects.
  • Performance verification during product development, type approval and factory quality control.
  • Basis for manufacturers to create product data sheets and declare performance for CE marking.
  • Guidance for testing laboratories conducting tensile, tear, watertightness, UV ageing and vapour transmission tests.

Who uses this standard

  • Manufacturers of flexible waterproofing sheets and underlays
  • Architects, specifiers and façade engineers choosing underlay performance levels
  • Installers and contractors ensuring correct product application behind claddings
  • Testing laboratories and notified bodies performing AVCP and type testing
  • Regulators and compliance officers assessing CE marking and CPR conformity
