Thermal insulation products for building equipment and industrial installations - Factory made extruded polystyrene foam (XPS) products - Specification
This European Standard specifies the requirements for factory made extruded polystyrene foam products which are used for the thermal insulation of building equipment and industrial installations with an operating temperature in the range of approximately - 180 °C to + 75 °C.
The products are manufactured in the form of faced or unfaced boards, pipe sections, segments and prefabricated ware.
This standard describes product characteristics and includes procedures for testing, evaluation of conformity, marking and labelling.
Products covered by this standard are also used in prefabricated thermal insulating systems and composite panels; the performance of systems incorporating these products is not covered.
This standard does not specify the required level of a given property that shall be achieved by a product to demonstrate fitness for purpose in a particular application. The levels required for a given application can be found in regulations and invitations to tender.
Products with a declared thermal conductivity greater than 0,060 W/(m.K) at a mean temperature of 10 °C are not covered by this standard.
This standard does not cover products intended to be used for the insulation of the building structure nor for acoustical insulation.

Overview
EN 14307:2009/FprA1 is a CEN European standard that specifies requirements for factory-made extruded polystyrene (XPS) thermal insulation products intended for building equipment and industrial installations. It applies to faced or unfaced boards, pipe sections, segments and prefabricated ware used in systems with an operating temperature range of approximately -180 °C to +75 °C. The standard covers product characteristics, testing procedures, evaluation of conformity, and marking and labelling. It does not set application-specific performance levels (these are determined by regulations or tender documents), nor does it cover XPS used for structural building insulation or acoustical insulation.
Key topics and requirements
- Scope and product types: Factory-made XPS products in board, pipe, segment and prefabricated forms; faced or unfaced.
- Temperature range: Suitable for installations operating roughly between -180 °C and +75 °C.
- Thermal performance limit: Excludes products with declared thermal conductivity greater than 0.060 W/(m·K) at a mean temperature of 10 °C.
- Product characteristics and testing: Includes procedures for measuring thermal conductivity, compressive strength (noted for load-bearing applications), release of dangerous or corrosive substances, and other relevant properties. (Specific test methods referenced in the standard.)
- Conformity assessment: Defines testing, evaluation of conformity, marking and labelling requirements and assigns tasks to manufacturers and notified bodies (including initial type testing). The draft amendment explicitly adds water absorption to conformity tasks.
- Regulatory linkage: Aligns with EU requirements; manufacturers must issue a Declaration of Performance in accordance with Construction Products Regulation (EU) No 305/2011 from 1 July 2013.
Practical applications
- Insulation for building services (HVAC ducts, chilled and hot pipework), refrigeration and cryogenic installations, and industrial process pipelines where XPS thermal performance and low-temperature capability are required.
- Use in prefabricated thermal insulating systems and composite panels (note: the standard covers the XPS product performance but not the performance of complete systems).
Who uses this standard
- Manufacturers of factory-made XPS insulation products
- Test laboratories and notified bodies performing initial type testing and conformity assessment
- Specifiers, consultants and engineers specifying thermal insulation for building equipment and industrial installations
- Procurement teams and contracting authorities referencing compliance in tenders and regulatory documentation
