For the EC certificate and declaration of conformity, as appropriate, see ZA.2.2. 7.2 Initial type testing All characteristics defined in 4.2 and those in 4.3 if declared, shall be subject to an initial type testing in accordance with Annex B of this standard. For the relevant characteristics, ITT on products corresponding also to EN 14305 may be used for the purpose of ITT and declaration according to this standard. 7.3 Factory production control The minimum frequencies of tests in the factory production control shall be in accordance with Annex B of this standard. When indirect testing is used, the correlation to direct testing shall be established in accordance with EN 13172. For the relevant characteristics, FPC on products corresponding also to EN 14305 may be used for the purpose of FPC and declaration according to this standard. 8 Marking and labelling Products conforming to this standard shall be marked clearly, either on the product or on the label or on the packaging, with the following information:
reaction to fire class of the product as placed on the market. This classification shall be in accordance with 4.2.6.
If reaction to fire tests on standardised assemblies have been performed according to Clause 6 of EN 15715:2009, then the reaction to fire classification shall be added and identified with the designation "standardised assembly no. x" after the classification. This information shall be kept distinct from the CE-Marking. The number of the standardised assembly is taken from Table 5 of EN 15715:2009. Refer to the manufacturer's literature (ML) for further information (see note). declared thermal resistance (RD);
declared thermal conductivity (D);
nominal thickness (dN);
designation code as given in Clause 6; nominal length (l); nominal width (b); type of facing, if any; number of pieces and area in the package, as appropriate.

Determination of the declared values of thermal resistance and
thermal conductivity A.1 General It is the responsibility of the manufacturer to determine the declared values of thermal resistance and thermal conductivity. He will have to demonstrate conformity of the product to its declared values. The declared values of thermal resistance and thermal conductivity of a product are the expected values of these properties during an economically reasonable working life under normal conditions, assessed through measured data at reference conditions. A.2 Input data The manufacturer shall have at least ten test results for thermal resistance and thermal conductivity, obtained from internal or external direct measurements in order to calculate the declared values. The direct thermal resistance or thermal conductivity measurements shall be carried out at regular intervals spread over a time period of the last twelve months. If less than ten results are available , the time period may be extended, until ten test results a
