(Main)Furniture - Classification for properties for furniture surfaces
Furniture - Classification for properties for furniture surfaces
This Technical Specification specifies a system for the classification of the resistance to:
- Dry heat
- Wet heat
- Cold liquids
- Abrasion
- Scratching
For resistance to dry heat, resistance to wet heat, and resistance to cold liquids, this Technical Specification applies to all furniture surfaces regardless of materials, except finishes on leather and fabrics.
The classification for the surface resistance to abrasion applies to foil, laminate, melamine faced boards, pigmented and transparent coatings. It does not apply to the surfaces covered by EN 14434.
The classification for the surface resistance to scratching has two methods, A and B. Method A applies to all types of surface coatings and coverings except for melamine faced boards and HPL. Method B applies to all types of surfaces. It does not apply to finishes on leather and fabrics.
Möbel - Klassifizierung von Möbeloberflächen
Diese Technische Spezifikation legt ein System zur Klassifizierung der Beständigkeit gegen:
- trockene Hitze;
feuchte Hitze;
- kalte Flüssigkeiten;
- Abrieb;
- Verkratzen fest. Für Beständigkeit gegen trockene Hitze, feuchte Hitze und kalte Flüssigkeiten, gilt diese Technische Spezi-fikation für alle Möbeloberflächen ungeachtet des Materials, außer für Oberflächen-Behandlungen auf Leder oder Textilien. Die Klassifizierung der Abriebfestigkeit gilt für Folien, Laminat, und Melamin beschichtete Platten sowie pig-mentierte und transparente Beschichtungen. Sie gilt nicht für Klassifizierungen nach EN 14434. Die Klassifizierung der Kratzfestigkeit kann nach 2 Verfahren erfolgen, A und B. Verfahren A gilt für alle Arten von Oberflächen-Beschichtungen außer für Melamin beschichtete Platten und HPL (Hochdruck-Schicht-stoffplatten; en: high pressure laminates). Verfahren B gilt für alle Arten von Möbeloberflächen. Sie gilt nicht für Oberflächen-Behandlungen auf Leder oder Textilien.
Ameublement - Classification des propriétés des surfaces d'ameublement
La présente spécification technique spécifie un système de classification de la résistance :
- à la chaleur sèche ;
- à la chaleur humide ;
- aux liquides froids ;
- à l’abrasion ;
- aux rayures.
Pour la résistance à la chaleur sèche, à la chaleur humide et aux liquides froids, la présente Spécification
technique s’applique à toutes les surfaces d’ameublement indépendamment des matériaux, à l’exception des
finitions appliquées sur le cuir et les textiles.
La classification de la résistance de la surface à l’abrasion s’applique aux panneaux revêtus de mélamine, de
film ou stratifiés, aux revêtements pigmentés et transparents. Il ne s’applique pas aux surfaces relevant de
l’EN 14434.
Il existe deux méthodes, A et B, de classification de la résistance de la surface aux rayures. La méthode A
s’applique à tous les types de revêtements et de couches de surface, à l’exception des panneaux revêtus de
mélamine et des panneaux stratifiés haute pression (HPL). La méthode B s’applique à tous les types de
surfaces. Elle ne s’applique pas aux finitions appliquées sur le cuir ou les textiles.
Pohištvo - Površine pohištva - Razvrstitev glede na odpornostne lastnosti
Ta tehnična specifikacija opredeljuje sistem za razvrstitev odpornosti za naslednje primere: suha toplota, mokra toplota, hladne tekočine, abrazija, odpornost proti suhi toploti, odpornost proti mokri toploti, odpornost proti hladnim tekočinam; ta tehnična specifikacija velja za vse površine pohištva ne glede na material, razen za zaključke iz usnja in blaga. Razvrstitev odpornosti površine proti abraziji velja za folije, laminate, melaminske plošče, barvne in prozorne premaze. Ta evropski standard ne velja za površine, ki so obravnavane v standardu EN 14434. Razvrstitev za odpornost površine proti praskam vključuje dva načina, A in B. Način A velja za vse vrste premazov in prevlek površin razen melaminskih plošč in visokotlačnih laminatov. Način B velja za vse vrste površin. Ne velja za zaključke iz usnja in blaga.
